I use CBT, Exposure and Response Prevention ( ERP), and DBT to help clients build practical tools for lasting change.
Stop Surviving. Start Living. Is anxiety running your life? Maybe your mind never slows down. You replay conversations, imagine worst-case scenarios, avoid situations that make you anxious, or feel trapped by intrusive thoughts. Perhaps OCD has convinced you that certainty is just one more thought away, leaving you exhausted and overwhelmed. Or maybe you’re a mother who feels like you’re carrying the weight of everyone else’s needs while quietly struggling yourself. Whether you’re navigating pregnancy, postpartum, the mental load of parenting, or trying to reconnect with yourself after becoming a mom, you deserve support too.

Do you feel like your mind never quiets down? You’re constantly replaying conversations, second-guessing decisions, or chasing impossible standards. Anxiety, perfectionism, and self-doubt have made it harder to feel calm, present, and connected—whether you're in class, at work, spending time with the people you care about or managing holiday stress. You’ve probably tried tips and tricks to manage the overwhelm, but they only go so far. You're ready for something deeper. You want to understand where this anxiety comes from—and how to finally shift it. Therapy at Cedar Rose Counseling can help you find lasting calm and clarity.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite like yourself lately? Maybe anxiety has been taking up more space in your life, your mood feels heavier than it used to, or a traumatic experience or major change has left you feeling off balance? Many people reach out for therapy when stress, depression, trauma, or life transitions start to feel harder to manage on their own. Plenty of my clients come in with several things going on at once rather than one clear, isolated problem. My role as a licensed psychologist is to help you understand what is happening and equip you with useful tools that make life more manageable.

Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) Therapists
Do I need exposure and response prevention therapy?
Many clients decide to seek help for obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors when these symptoms are distressing enough to disrupt everyday life. Any thoughts or behaviors that cause friction in close relationships are also worth addressing. In addition, the client’s symptoms don’t have to be severe for them to benefit from ERP therapy.

Is exposure and response prevention therapy part of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Exposure and response prevention is one specific type of CBT that focuses on behavioral change in response to triggering stimuli. It is related to exposure therapy but adds an additional component of preventing compulsive and harmful responses.

How long does exposure and response prevention therapy take?
While every patient is different, exposure and response prevention therapy typically lasts around 12 sessions, although some treatments can take longer. A therapist will determine if the treatment is complete based on how the client faces their fears, particularly the strongest ones. When a client feels less anxiety about stimuli that once evoked terror or distress, that is generally an indication that they are nearing the end of ERP therapy.

What are the limitations of exposure and response prevention therapy?
The most common pitfalls of exposure and response prevention therapy include not addressing a client’s core fears, allowing the client to avoid their most distressing stimuli, and using imaginary exposure when the client requires real-life exposure (and vice versa). ERP therapy is most effective when the client commits to the full course of treatment; if the client stops early or doesn’t practice what they have learned outside of therapy sessions, they are less likely to have successful outcomes.
