Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Philadelphia, PA
I have been treating adults and teens with eating disorders, anxiety, addictions and mood disorders for over 15 years. My style can be described as warm and collaborative. I think it is important for therapists to be approachable and "real." My clients value direction and new ideas balanced with having a space to be seen and cared for as they are. I see therapy as a vehicle for people to find their own answers but I also value empirically supported techniques for helping clients feel better. I utilize humor and help clients set actionable goals so they can make measurable changes.

I look forward to exploring your concerns, fears and needs in a supportive therapeutic environment. I enjoy working with individuals, couples, and families addressing substance abuse, relationship, mood issues ( depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, etc). I often work with family members who have trouble motivating a loved one to consider treatment, or who want to learn about their loved one's condition and how to best support them. I value maintaining relationships with other providers, including psychiatrists, other therapists such as group therapists, couple therapists, inpatient treatment facilities, etc. as part of maintaining good coordination of your care as necessary.

My therapeutic style is warm, grounded and direct, and I have a particular focus on work with shame, despair, and existential dread. I work to co-create a therapeutic space for speaking freely to address intense, painful, or confusing feelings without judgement. Connecting in the present moment opens the possibility of awareness and relief in the present moment while also addressing underlying dynamics. I specialize in working with artists, LGBTQ+ people, organizers and activists, people who have experienced trauma, and people pushed to the margins of society.

I often work with the quiet desperation that comes from long-term mental suffering. Maybe you’ve been resilient for years, but all the pain has returned from a traumatic childhood; maybe you have recently been diagnosed with autism after years of masking; maybe you survived cancer or are living with chronic illness; maybe you have chronic pain. I’m here to help you create a future self, in light of your past selves and current self. Through understanding and accepting your historical and current context without shame, it is possible to change and create more valued actions and the life that is worth living for you.

Trauma. We all experience it at some point in our lives. It’s that thing that keeps you up at night. The thing that you distract yourself from by working extra hours, scrolling endlessly on Tik-Tok, self-harm, addiction, codependency. We run, fight, freeze, fawn, shut-down. Our bodies are built to adapt to the stress in our lives but what happens when the stress is too much? When we run into obstacles like bullying, abuse, illness, separation, loss, disasters? What happens when there is no one to witness our pain? We forget about the parts of ourselves that are creative, brave, intuitive, funny, smart, kind, gentle, strong.
