Feeling scared and ashamed of distressing thoughts, being stuck in repetitive behaviors, avoiding activities because of intense anxiety, tension with loved because of overwhelming fear - these are all things that people with OCD and anxiety talk about. People who struggle with these issues often feel afraid of their fears coming true. They often feel a sense that something is wrong but don't know how to fix it.
I have worked extensively in treatment centers and in private practice with a wide variety of clients. I focus on working with OCD, anxiety, body dysmorphic disorder, social anxiety, agoraphobia, panic disorder, specific phobias, hair pulling, skin picking, hoarding, and compulsive decluttering.
People who seek therapy for OCD and anxiety often experience significant improvements in their emotions, daily functioning, and overall quality of life. Therapy can provide a warm, trusting, and supportive environment to help people overcome the obstacles that mental health issues create.
