You've tried to think your way out of this. Maybe you've even tried therapy before. But OCD and anxiety don't respond well to talk-it-through approaches—and every year without the right treatment can feel like another year lost. I specialize in the gold standard treatments for OCD and anxiety. CBT and ERP are proven methods that have helped millions of people reclaim their lives. My clients come to me ashamed of their thoughts, performing "fine" while inside they are falling apart. They leave feeling at home in their own heads again.
CBT and ERP are among the most well-researched approaches in all of psychology, with a 60+ year track record of helping people go from "I'm broken" to "I was stuck." These are respectful, focused treatments—widely considered the most effective available for OCD and anxiety.
You don't need to be ready for everything—just ready for the first step: a free phone consultation where we talk through your situation and see if it's the right fit. We move at your pace: never faster or slower than what you choose. Send me a message or schedule a free 15-minute intro call today.

I have a demonstrated history treating a wide range of psychological concerns: OCD, anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship & parenting issues, etc. I chose to specialize in OCD & anxiety treatment because many of these individuals don't receive evidence-based or appropriately-applied treatments.

These are structured, focused treatments with a clear sense of direction. From your first session, you will begin to develop language to explain what's going on and will understand where treatment is headed. We move at your pace: never faster or slower than what you choose. You're not broken. You're stuck in a pattern that makes sense—and there's a way out.
