Something is keeping you stuck — and part of you already knows it. Maybe it’s a pattern of intrusive thoughts you can’t shake, a wound that keeps showing up in your relationships, a secret you’ve been carrying alone, or a spiritual crisis that’s left you unmoored. Whatever brought you here, I believe your story holds the roadmap. Our symptoms, our struggles, our relationships — they’re not random. They’re pointing somewhere. And if we can approach them with curiosity, presence, and compassion, they can lead us toward insight, wholeness, and healing.
I specialize in OCD and use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) — the gold-standard treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder — alongside trauma-informed care, parts work (IFS), and person-centered care. I also work with anxiety, depression, attachment and relationship issues, spiritual concerns, and pornography addiction.
I consider the whole person and tailor my work to where you are. If you’re looking for a place to talk about the addiction that won’t seem to let up, the cycle of anxiety and depression you can’t seem to shake, or the trauma and pain that that won’t seem to let go — I would be honored to walk with you.
