Have you ever wondered if you have OCD? Have you been feeling stuck in traditional talk therapy? Are you struggling with intrusive thoughts or constant rumination that feels never-ending? Do you find yourself caught in compulsions or rituals, such as checking lights, stoves, or electronics, engaging in excessive cleaning or bathing, or getting stuck in a cycle of reassurance-seeking (yes this can be a compulsion)? Do you experience overwhelming doubts- questioning "did I really say that," or "maybe I really did hurt their feelings." Or perhaps you're dealing with some of the more distressing, taboo forms of OCD.
There is hope! OCD is very treatable with the right tools. I specialize in working with OCD, anxiety disorders, and depression. I’m trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), an evidence-based approach that helps reduce the impact of OCD. As someone who has struggled with OCD, I understand how much time and energy rumination and compulsions can take.
I also have training in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) which can be useful for generalized anxiety and depression but can make OCD worse. I can help you tease out when to use CBT or ERP. Together, we can work to decrease the hold OCD has on your life and help you regain a sense of control. You don’t have to go through this alone!
