I practice specialized therapies called ERP, ICBT and EMDR that are considered highly effective for OCD and trauma treatment.
Do you struggle with trauma or OCD? Hi, I’m Grace and I help people with difficult parents get past their childhoods. If your home life was chaotic or straight up disturbing and now you're a nervous perfectionist let's talk. My client's wish for emotional stability. They worry about worst case scenarios constantly. Their minds never calm down. But mostly they struggle with guilt and shame. Whatever the actual diagnosis is, they feel like they are never enough. They feel like everything is their fault. They look back on their childhood memories and cringe because they feel unbearable.

With the use of evidence-based modalities such as ACT, CBT, ERP & Mindfulness techniques, individuals learn to gently and curiously recenter their lives based on what is most important to them.
ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. My expertise is working with individuals who suffer with OCD and Anxiety. Those of you who struggle with this disorder can attest to the intrusive nature of your obsessions and compulsions. OCD disrupts your mental capacity to know what is true. You are in a constant state of anxiety, questioning your unwanted thoughts, like a recording on auto-replay. While OCD can be anxiety-provoking, there is hope for a better way of working through your struggle. The therapeutic process can help sufferers, like you, come to understand the nature of your OCD and learn to live a more value-centered life.

Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) Therapists
Do I need exposure and response prevention therapy?
Many clients decide to seek help for obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors when these symptoms are distressing enough to disrupt everyday life. Any thoughts or behaviors that cause friction in close relationships are also worth addressing. In addition, the client’s symptoms don’t have to be severe for them to benefit from ERP therapy.

Is exposure and response prevention therapy part of cognitive behavioral therapy?
Exposure and response prevention is one specific type of CBT that focuses on behavioral change in response to triggering stimuli. It is related to exposure therapy but adds an additional component of preventing compulsive and harmful responses.

How long does exposure and response prevention therapy take?
While every patient is different, exposure and response prevention therapy typically lasts around 12 sessions, although some treatments can take longer. A therapist will determine if the treatment is complete based on how the client faces their fears, particularly the strongest ones. When a client feels less anxiety about stimuli that once evoked terror or distress, that is generally an indication that they are nearing the end of ERP therapy.

What are the limitations of exposure and response prevention therapy?
The most common pitfalls of exposure and response prevention therapy include not addressing a client’s core fears, allowing the client to avoid their most distressing stimuli, and using imaginary exposure when the client requires real-life exposure (and vice versa). ERP therapy is most effective when the client commits to the full course of treatment; if the client stops early or doesn’t practice what they have learned outside of therapy sessions, they are less likely to have successful outcomes.
