Supporting motivated and goal-oriented adults including executives, professionals & performers with OCD, like you, in reclaiming your mental space and finding peace of mind. Are you ready to explore techniques to calm your mind, improve focus, and develop a clear plan to reach your goals despite the challenges OCD presents? Are you looking for effective strategies other than exclusively exposure work? Would you like to explore mindfulness and meditation practices to assist in managing stress, anxiety, and/or OCD? Curious about how lifestyle & environmental changes can aid in decreasing your anxiety symptoms?

I specialize in all themes of OCD using a holistic approach that addresses mind, body, and spirit. I help clients overcome intrusive thoughts and compulsions through personalized, evidence-based techniques. I offer both individual and group strategy sessions to guide you toward lasting freedom and renewed confidence in managing OCD's complexities.

I bring a rich research and analytical background to my practice, balanced with deep compassion and warmth. My approach combines evidence-based knowledge with intuitive wisdom from personal experiences and 10 years as a clinical therapist. I truly understand the challenges you face with OCD and severe anxiety—I've walked alongside many on similar journeys.
