Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Washington

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) has been called "The Doubting Disease," and is characterized by unwanted and intrusive doubts, fears, “irrational” worries, and at its worst, terror and psychological torment. People with OCD experience doubts and fears which usually focus on whatever they most care about or highly value, such as their most important relationships, their moral character, their health or the health and well-being of those they care about. Sufferers use mental or behavioral rituals that provide temporary relief from the obsession, which become compulsions that can be painful in and of themselves.

Limited after-school availability! - My passion is working with adolescents, families and adults who are looking to learn new skills to use in their lives.

I provide space where people can be human, share their truth, explore identities + practice new learning. I’m accepting clients ages 5+ for in-person and ages 13+ for telehealth/in-person. Clients under 13 unable to do in-person are encouraged to start parent sessions with me to foster change.

Why can’t I just be happy? Why is everything so difficult? Is life just endless suffering? Most of us are trying to rid ourselves of our anxiety by avoiding frightening situations and shielding ourselves from uncomfortable experiences. In doing so, our existence often becomes narrow and tedious. But what if we could learn to make room for the inevitable pains that life confronts us with and accept the experiences we cannot control. If we can become more psychologically flexible, we can then be present and do what matters most to us.

Teletherapy for anxiety, panic, OCD, and selective mutism - You feel like you can’t get out of your head. You try to distract yourself, but the “what if” worries won’t stop. You ask your friends and family if the worries are “logical”, and then realize you are asking the same question over and over again. Maybe you’re experiencing feelings of panic or other anxiety that stops you from being able to do the things you want to. You want to be more social, but you go blank when you are in a new situation. You can't stop putting pressure on yourself to be "productive" which often leads to more worries.
