The constant mental tug-of-war can be exhausting. You may feel stuck in cycles of overthinking, self-doubt, reassurance-seeking, checking, or searching for certainty that never seems to last. You may find yourself worrying about your health, monitoring your body for signs that something is wrong, searching for answers, or finding that reassurance only helps for a little while. Even simple decisions can begin to feel overwhelming, and the pressure to “get it right” can slowly pull you away from the life you want to live.
My name is Seda (Seh-dah), and I’m so glad you’re here. I specialize in the treatment of OCD, anxiety, and related disorders. Whether you are beginning to recognize these patterns in your life or transitioning from an intensive treatment program for OCD, I can offer specialized support tailored to where you are in your treatment journey.
Together, we will use evidence-based approaches to understand what keeps the cycle going, reduce compulsions and avoidance, and use new skills for responding differently to anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and uncertainty. If you’re looking for a warm, engaged therapist who partners with you in a structured and effective way, I'd be honored to support you.

I help clients navigate health anxiety, social anxiety, panic, phobias, and all forms of OCD. Although anxiety and OCD can look different from person to person, they often operate in predictable cycles that leave you feeling trapped. Together, we build a deeper understanding of your unique patterns so you can step out of survival mode and begin responding with confidence, flexibility, and freedom.
