Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Anxiety, and Emotional Eating. I treat people with OCD, anxious rumination, and stress eating. My approach is warm, direct, and encouraging to help you change compulsive behavior that keeps you stuck. I help OCD sufferers and people with emotionally driven eating behavior find peace and healthier ways of coping with intense emotions. We work on letting go of harsh self-criticism, shame, and rigid perfectionism. We develop your ability to emotionally regulate with more flexible thinking, courage, and gentleness so you can approach challenges from a more empowered place.

I specialize in treating OCD with a Rumination-Focused approach to Exposure and Response Prevention (RF-ERP). Therapy for emotional eating is individualized with attention to emotion-regulation, mindfulness, nourishment, meaning & purpose. Sessions include experiential activities and emotional processing to deepen understanding and promote tangible change.

I welcome people with obsessive-compulsive traits seeking a holistic, values-based, and straightforward approach. I invite you to reach out if you desire greater agency and self awareness. Learn more about how I can help by visiting my website. The best way to contact me is through the secure form on my website. I respond to inquiries in 1-3 business days.
