Ever feel like your mind just won’t stop racing? I work with kids, teens, and adults who feel stuck in cycles of worry, anxiety, or overthinking. Many struggle with OCD, intrusive thoughts, or perfectionism that make daily life feel overwhelming. Together, we create a supportive space to understand patterns, build healthy coping tools, and find balance. My goal is to help you feel more confident, calm, and capable of handling life’s challenges with self-compassion and clarity.
If you’ve tried therapy before and it hasn’t worked, you’re not alone. I specialize in treating OCD and anxiety using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a highly effective, evidence-based approach. I help kids, teens, and adults face fears safely, reduce compulsions, and gain control over intrusive thoughts.
OCD and anxiety can make daily life feel exhausting, but real change is possible. In our work together, we’ll use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to help you face fears safely and break free from the cycle of avoidance and worry. I’ll guide you with warmth and practical tools so you can gain confidence, reduce anxiety, and feel more present.
