Meet our Therapists

I started as a therapist over 14 years ago, working in different mental health environments. Many people with OCD that weren't being treated for it crossed my path and weren't getting better. I decided that I wanted to help people with OCD, so I became an OCD therapist, and eventually, a clinical supervisor. I treated people using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and saw people get better day in and day out. I continue to use ERP because nothing is more effective in treating OCD.

Darilyn McElfresh

As a therapist, first and foremost, I believe in meeting you where you're at. I can have a plan, but that means nothing without understanding where you are. That will help us navigate where to go and how to prioritize. A fun fact about me: I have a dog named Emma. She's a Scoodle (Scottie and poodle mix). Chances are you'll hear her at some point, because she's usually under my desk. I'm kind of her emotional support human.

I’ve been treating people with anxiety and depression for almost 40 years, with OCD being prevalent in cases that I’ve taken on. Now, I specialize in OCD. I tend to see many people with a Christian background, so if you have OCD and a faith-based world view, I understand how to help.

I've happily spent over 30 years working at a community mental health services facility, which includes therapist work and supervision of social workers and other therapists.

Allen Liao

Before joining NOCD, I worked at a treatment and coaching program in Los Angeles that focused on helping people deal with OCD, which was my first introduction to Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. Since receiving my practicing license, I’ve been working specifically with OCD cases. It’s great to see people’s courage develop as they get better using ERP. It’s an incredibly effective treatment for OCD, and I can’t wait to work with you and help you get better.

Siddhi Patel

I’ve been a licensed therapist for over 10 years. My private practice as a licensed psychologist has allowed me to treat many people with OCD, and my work as a college counselor has given me more experience with unique OCD cases.

I’m happy that I get to provide this scientifically proven treatment to those that join me in my sessions.

Ursula Wright

I’m going on a decade of experience as a licensed social worker, treating mood & anxiety disorders, addiction, domestic violence, and OCD. I’ve learned that people struggling with disorders have a hard time finding access to a professional diagnosis. NOCD changes that. As a specialized OCD therapist, I’ll provide you with a diagnosis and, if you show signs of OCD, I’ll use the most trusted method in treating OCD called Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. ERP is well-researched and proven to work.

I have a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, am a board-certified behavior analyst, and have training in ERP therapy.

Working with a research-based treatment like ERP is rewarding because it allows me to see people break free from the hold that OCD has over them.

Sandra Shern

I'm fortunate to have seen Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy help people with OCD when I worked at a non-profit community mental health program almost 15 years ago. The program was a great learning environment because I treated every type of mental health issue, including OCD, and saw how people's behavior changed when given proper treatment. It molded me as a therapist, and now, I'm using ERP to treat so many people that need support and guidance as they face OCD.

Bethany Burton

Licensed Therapist, LCSW-R

I've been working as a professional counselor and clinical trauma professional since 2008, and now I specialize in OCD treatment. When I saw people exhibiting symptoms of OCD during my sessions, I knew that there must be a better treatment out there to help them. I’m now trained to provide Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, and the more I treat people with OCD using ERP, the more results I see. The surprise in people's faces when that change happens is a great experience, and that makes me stoked to offer this phenomenal treatment to you.

Let’s start treatment and get you better.

Steven Maurno

I’ve been a practicing therapist for over 20 years, mostly in correctional facilities working with juveniles and adults. I’ve helped many people overcome adversity, and what I saw in clients with OCD is a lack of access to proper guidance.

That opportunity is available through Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, the gold standard treatment for OCD.

Jeffrey Pincin

Growing up, I hid my OCD obsessions out of embarrassment, but I’ve learned that with the right treatment, you don’t have to live that way.

My early training in how to treat OCD was led by Dr. Patrick McGrath himself. I’m a firm believer in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy because I’ve seen how well it works. You'll be asked to face your fears during our ERP sessions, and will need someone qualified like myself to help you overcome those fears.

In my youth, I counted each syllable of every word in my head, using my fingers while doing it. I can still recall the daily stress as I tried to fit in while hiding my hands. More recently, my mother was diagnosed with OCD near the end of her life. Everything inside the home had to be perfect, and it made her life challenging.

I’ve been a therapist since 1994, holding a private practice since 2000. As a person with OCD, I know how torturous it can be to deal with intrusive thoughts and the anxiety that they cause. and how improper treatment does not solve the problem. I eventually did Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, so I know firsthand how powerful and effective it is. ERP is a researched method that brings results, and as a therapist who's held a private practice since 2000, I will use ERP to get you out of the anguish you feel.

OCD may have done a number on your self-esteem and self-worth. One of the best things I can do as a therapist is to help you tap into your strengths. You may be dealing with intrusive thoughts, but you have the internal strength to recover. You can approach things in a different way and have a better tomorrow. Outside of work, I'm a geek. I help run a zombie live-action role-playing game in the woods of Wisconsin. It's part of a national game. It's a lot of spooky fun and really reduces stress.

I understand what you’re going through, because I have struggled with OCD myself. Outside of work, I enjoy true-crime books and podcasts, and I love being in nature. I once hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back up in one day. That's about 10 hours. I didn't think I'd make it, but I did. It was a great experience—but next time I'll spend the night before hiking back up.

Francisco Quinonez

As a therapist, I take a very humanistic approach. This is an alliance, and we're in this together. I like to include humor and creativity in sessions when possible. I'm also a musician, and I've incorporated music when counseling other musicians. I treat everyone with a focus on their individual situation and needs. That enables me to provide the best therapy services I can.

Kai McBride

I'm a good listener and enjoy hearing people's stories, and I like to make sense of things. I've worked with a variety of people, from many different cultures, in urban and rural settings.

Justin Trout

Starting when I was young, through some personal experiences, I have felt called to help people. I love seeing people overcome hills and valleys and by the end of therapy be able to say, "I feel better."

Ariel Melotik

I really enjoy working individually with people, helping them meet their goals and creating a safe space. I would describe my treatment style as collaborative: I want to work together with you to make your treatment plan.

Alfredo Ramos

Being a therapist is a calling for me – a way to help others the same way I have been helped through therapy. I will treat you with empathy, encouragement, and accountability.

Eri Cela

I want to help make people's lives more meaningful and purposeful. I want to understand your challenges, and work with you on how to manage them.

Agnes Carbrey

I have seen that mental health has been the most important issue in all of my personal relationships, and I have a passion for alleviating other people's suffering. When I discovered the tools of therapy myself, I wanted to share them.

Kimberly Taylor

I love meeting different types of people, helping them at a time when they most need it, and seeing them progress. For most of my working years, I was a Spanish teacher and guidance counselor. But my greatest role by far is being a mom to a teenage daughter.

Melissa Pickett

I saw a close family member struggle with severe mental illness, and it made me want to be a part of people’s journey toward wellness and healing. I believe in a holistic approach to health. Outside of work, I'm a runner and love to do yoga; I've been practicing for more than five years.

Valencia Thomas

I come from a large family, and I’ve seen the stigma around mental illness. Caring for your mental health is just as important as going to the doctor to care for your high blood pressure, diabetes, or heart health. It's just the same.

Serena Bednarczyk

I've had personal struggles with anxiety and depression, and I grew up in a family that struggled with mental health issues. I got into therapy because I realized it could make other people feel seen and heard and help them deal with their issues.

Michael Anderson

I've always had an interest in the ways people think and the ways we behave—the connections between how we think, how we react, and our emotions. I specialize in OCD because of the need I see in the people I treat.

Danielle Cohen

I've probably had OCD my whole life. I have done ERP myself, and it was immensely helpful. I want to give back and help, because I totally understand what people are going through.

Cindy Ransom

As a therapist, I find it gratifying to help people and see it through all the way. I realized there is a growing need for effective OCD treatment. I want to be able to help more people within my community - as a Latina and a bilingual therapist, I know that there's a huge need.

Raechel Taylor

I like to create a safe and open environment for my members. I want this to be a collaboration, so we're working together and I'm not just telling you what I believe are the answers. This is a team effort. In my spare time, I like reading, getting outside, and doing Pilates.

Natalie Delgado

As a therapist, I emphasize and value collaboration. I focus on creating and strengthening rapport with the people I'm working with. I will check in with you, step by step, to ensure you feel comfortable as we go through the process. A fun fact about me: I found out in middle school that I can lick my elbow, even though that's supposed to be impossible, and I can still do it. I even did it during my grad school interview. I tell people that's the only reason why I got in!

Christi Hogan

As a therapist, I'm very direct, but also open, empathetic and patient. I look forward to working together with you to ease your struggles and make your life a lot better. In my spare time, I enjoy watching movies and spending time with my son, who's eight. I love to get outdoors and go for hikes. I think exercise is really important for reducing stress and supporting mental health.

Marcio Guzman

As a therapist, I aim to be authentic and present for the people I'm working with. I'll listen to your story with empathy, understanding, validation, and consistency, working to create a safe space. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to bake. During the pandemic, I've become quite experienced.

Hilary Stein

As a therapist, I provide a really casual, comfortable environment. I talk with members in the same way I talk with my friends and family. I will build a connection with you, and we will work together as teammates. Outside of work, my favorite thing to do is ski. Living in California, you get the best of everything—oceans, warm weather, and the mountains. I'm also a dog mom. I have a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who's my little girl.

Blima Hoffman

In therapy, first and foremost, I like to develop a relationship with the person I'm working with. I try to create a safe, open environment where you can feel comfortable telling me whenever you need to tell me. Outside of work, I love nature and dogs. I've never had one, but that's one of my dreams: to one day get a dog.

Arielle Speer

As a therapist, I'm very humanistic. I believe your treatment should be guided by you. I encourage you to have compassion for yourself as you learn to recognize that you are not your thoughts. When I'm not doing therapy, I enjoy acrylic painting. I love doing 'dirty pours,' where you pour a bunch of paints together on a canvas, and a piece begins to take the shape of its very own unique, individual self.

Denissie Santana

In session, I like to create a warm environment. I don't want you to feel intimidated by me just because I'm a professional. This is a collaborative process. I'm here to work with you, and it's important for you to be actively involved in the process. Outside of work, I love spending time with my dog. I help a foundation that raises money for dogs in foster care. I go on walks with the group and join events where I can be supportive.

Eleni O'Brien

My therapy style is interactive and engaging. I am not a "nod and smile" therapist, rather I will challenge you in every session. That being said, my style is also laid-back, supportive, and warm; yet honest and direct. I will not ask you to do anything that I would be unwilling to do myself. Fun fact about me: I am 100% Greek and very engaged with my Greek culture; Greek dancing, cooking, and music are a huge part of my hobbies!

Margaret Pricejones

As a therapist, first and foremost, I provide support and empathy. Then I'll teach you techniques to manage your OCD. Outside of work, I'm a big biker. I bike everywhere for transportation.

Rebecca Gonzalez

As a therapist, I bring a lot of empathy, compassion and understanding. I'm not just a stoic face. Outside of work, I have two dogs—a French bulldog and German shepherd mix—and I love spending time with them and my husband, running, hiking, and being outdoors.

Tammy Rose

As a therapist, I approach things first with compassion. I like to provide a lot of education about OCD, which I think can be really perplexing to people: Most people know that the intrusive thoughts that they're having are irrational and struggle to understand why they're engaging in the compulsions that they are. When I'm not doing therapy, I'm a mom to a high schooler, and I love coffee. I probably know every cool coffee shop in the entire I live in the Research Triangle area of North Carolina. I have two cats, and I hope that they don't interrupt sessions!

Marilyn Pennington

As a therapist, I am very client-centered. I will meet you where you are and how you're feeling. I'll let you tell me your story first. I won't project any preconceived ideas on what your problems are. When I'm not doing therapy, I love cooking. I probably spend too much time watching cooking shows, trying to learn new techniques. If I've been to a restaurant, I will research their menu online and try to duplicate an excellent dish. I enjoy that immensely.

Liz Rowell

As a therapist, I bring who I am as a person, not just a therapist, to each session. I very much believe in developing a solid rapport with the people I work with, and that involves really getting to know you. What exactly are your struggles? What are your strengths? What do you hope to see on the other side? With that, I always like to bring a solid sense of humor. A fun fact about me: I am a big dog lover. I have my own dog, a maltese poodle. She's a little over one years old and I love to spend time with her. I'm also big into arts and crafts. I love to cross stitch.

Carolyn Meiman

As a therapist, I am always person centered. I will encourage and empower you to take the lead and let me know what role I need to play in each session. My favorite thing to do outside of sessions is to play with my puppy. He will almost always be in my lap during sessions, guaranteed. I also like to play with my hedgehog, which I think is kind of unique.

Arlene Donnelly

I became a therapist because of my own mental-health journey. I know what it's like to address what's going on inside your head, and successfully come out the other side. In OCD therapy, we'll look at your thought processes to address what's going on and build coping skills to manage the anxiety. Outside of work, I have six kids, a big blended family. I'm big into reading. I read just about anything. Usually, I'm reading about four books at once.

Rheba Estante

As a therapist, I like to learn a lot about what's happening in your life now. How does your OCD manifest in daily life? What are you doing now that isn't working for you? I also like to get background stories to determine perhaps why some of these anxieties exist. I like to look at biopsychosocial history—like birth order or your school experience—which is often relevant. A fun fact about me: I wrote a children's book about my dog, who is a German shepherd, in both English and German in 2013. It's about him going to Berlin to visit his grandparents.

Scott Serpa

As a therapist, I use a non-judgmental, strengths-oriented, evidence-based approach. I'll meet you where you're at, get to know you, and we'll work together as a team to identify the goals and interventions that will help you reach those goals. When I'm not working or spending time with family or friends, I'm outside hiking or spending time in the natural world here in the Northeast. That's where I'm most relaxed and happiest.

Alexandra Hollander

As a therapist, I'm very person-centered. I'll be with you all the way, going through the emotions, working on exactly what your needs are. Some fun facts about me: I have traveled the world extensively and have lived in several different countries. I love different cultures. I was born and raised in Germany; I speak French, but my predominant language is German. And I'm crazy about dogs.

Caroline Reis

With OCD, it can take a long time to get that correct treatment—you may have gone from therapist to therapist not really getting exactly what you need. I like to educate people I'm working with on that diagnosis and what that means for treatment. There is hope. There is an effective treatment for OCD, and there are a lot of things we can work on. Outside of work, I have three kids, and like to run. It's how I keep myself physically and mentally healthy.

Carol Dunning

Licensed Therapist, Ph.D.

As a therapist, I’ll make sure you feel safe. You can trust me. I know it's really hard to talk about some of the stuff that goes on inside your mind. I also like to make therapy fun—and it can be a lot of fun when you're learning how to master your thoughts. When I'm not doing therapy, I have a couple of German shepherds that I like to go hiking with, and I love swimming.

Jason Gibbs

As a therapist, I try to create a welcoming, warm environment. When I first meet with someone, I like to start off by finding out what they want to get out of therapy. I'll craft a treatment plan with you based on that, realizing that other concerns can arise on a week-to-week basis. Outside of work, I'm a big fan of rock and metal music and love going to concerts. I also have three sugar gliders that I've had for about seven years. They are miniature flying squirrels, basically. So during our sessions, if there's ever any weird chirping that comes through a wall in the background, that's probably what you're hearing.

Jessica Morales

As a therapist, I am centered on you. I want to understand the specific things you're going through, so we can work through them together. I take a kind but firm approach. I'll acknowledge that things are going to be difficult, but at the same time, that I have confidence you can do it. Fun facts about me: I was a collegiate athlete and have played volleyball pretty much my whole life. Outside of work, I love sporting events, being active, and hanging out with my dogs.

Aaron Hensley

I treat people with OCD the same as I would treat someone without OCD. I treat you as an individual, with individual experiences, and individual needs. I view you as an expert on your OCD. Outside of work, I am a father to two daughters. I love binge-watching TV shows with my wife. When the weather is nice, you can always find my family at the park hiking or playing at the playground.

Devon Garza

Licensed Therapist, MC

As a therapist, I'm really direct and comfortable pushing you to do what you need to do. I don't shy away from topics that you might think are weird or uncomfortable. I'm here to help you deal with those. Accountability is also important to me—we're going to talk about what's going well, and what's not going well. A fun fact about me: When I'm not in session, I love to experiment with cooking and subject my family to the results, for better or worse.

Kayla Higginbotham

I don't believe therapy needs to feel intense, sad, or scary. I try to bring some fun and humor into my sessions to make it lively and comfortable. I work really hard at creating a judgment-free space. I hope you'll feel comfortable sharing with me, and that you'll feel seen, heard, and not judged. When I'm not doing therapy, I'm a voracious reader. I read four to five novels a week. In my spare time, you'll probably never find me without a book either directly on my face or in my hand.

Nicole O'Brien

Licensed Therapist, LMFT #121510

As a therapist, I work to create a space that is non-judgmental, open, warm, and compassionate. This is your space. You're in control of what you want to do or don't want to do. It's a place where you can feel comfortable. Outside of work, I'm a huge animal person, and I don't discriminate against what type of animal it is—dog, cat, fish, lizard or guinea pig. You're always welcome to show me your little fuzzy, scaly, or slimy friends.

Christopher Evans

As a therapist, I am focused on you. I prioritize making a connection and strengthening our relationship over the course of therapy. One of my primary goals is to remove the obstacles that are preventing you from getting what you need. We will create an individual treatment that works for you. Outside of work, I'm a very active person. I love being outside. I've been very much into mountain biking lately, even though I broke both my wrists in 2019. But I'm back on the bike—I've learned how to fall and how to react to things better.

Jen Locke

As a therapist, number one, I'm a non-judgmental listener. I hope that sitting with me is like sitting with a friend or a coach who can help you by listening. I'll give feedback, but this is your therapy—you will be deciding what you're going to be doing in your life. Some fun facts about me: I love to exercise and be outside. One of my passions is yoga. Especially during the summertime, you'll find me outside doing yoga, either in my backyard or at a park.

Vanessa Nunez

As a therapist, I want to create an environment where you'll be comfortable enough to be open and honest with me. I will reciprocate that openness and honesty, and I'll gently push you to break out of your comfort zone. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to do CrossFit. I took a break to have a baby, but now I'm back at it.

Lisa de Guzman

First and foremost, I want you to feel like you're heard and not judged. You're not alone in this; there is help. I will help you build confidence and a new skill set—you can develop the skills to live a really healthy life. A fun fact about me: My new self-care activity is transforming a Ford Transit so my husband and I can spend time in nature and settle back into the universe. It's a beautiful thing.

Ryan Ventillo

As a therapist, I am authentic, compassionate, and caring. Empathy and open communication are important, and I take the time to listen and understand. I like to set specific goals and use measurable instruments so we can understand where we started and where we're going. Some fun facts about me: I've traveled to more than half of the United States. I'm a big outdoorsy type of person and love going on hikes and to national parks.

Tim Flaharty

As a therapist, the first big piece I work on is developing a connection with the person I'm working with, so we can establish trust. I take time to learn about you—the story of who you are, how you've gotten to where you are now, and what you want for the future. From there, we start looking into more of the techniques that will sever the connection between the things you're doing that aren't helping you and your anxiety. A fun fact about me: I have an undergraduate degree in theater, which is something I've always been interested in.

Jennifer McCormick

As a therapist, I tend to take a somewhat gentle approach, although that depends on our treatment goals—I can be direct and forward, or more gentle. When I'm not doing therapy, I love the outdoors—kayaking, hiking, biking, and really anything you can think of to do outside.

Laken Schang

Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LCSW

As a therapist, I like to be very open and organic, letting things flow in session. I want you to feel safe in talking about the struggles that you've dealt with. I like to be fun and upbeat, not always so serious.OCD is hard enough—when you can have a bit of fun and enjoy time with your therapist, it's a bonus. Some fun facts about me: I like to do adventurous activities outdoors, but my favorite thing to do in my free time is watching Korean dramas on TV.

Faran Asen

As a therapist, I'm very collaborative and direct. I like to meet people where they're at. I like coming up with really unique exposures and making sure that we're doing what feels right for you. I try to make sessions light-hearted, when possible, because there's a lot of anxiety and fear involved in OCD. A fun fact about me: Outside of work, I'm a watercolor artist and have exhibited my paintings in shows.

Jennifer Beardslee

Licensed Therapist, Ed.S

As a therapist, I try to create an empathetic, non-judgmental space where people can feel comfortable opening up. I like to let you lead. I will meet you where you are, then help you find your own wisdom within yourself. Outside of work, I live right by the ocean, so I love to do all the activities that allows me to do—paddle boarding, swimming, and exploring marine life and animals.

Alberto Jaime

Registered Associate Therapist, CSW

As a therapist, I will treat you with unconditional positive regard. I will meet you wherever you're at, regardless of what your situation is. A fun fact about me: I lived in Alaska for three years, in a small, remote town called Chugiak. I was stationed as an Army medic at Fort Richardson.

Iris Cohen

My approach to treating OCD is direct and compassionate. I'll help you identify your values and develop exposures involving the things that are important to you.

Aki Takeda

As a therapist, I am centered on you. In session, I will be with you, without judgment. I like to listen to your concerns first, before offering my own suggestions. When I'm not doing therapy, I play tennis. I love outdoor activities, like walking or hiking. Looking at the beautiful evening sky is very therapeutic for me. And it's also very affordable!

Lila Braida

As a therapist, I take a very compassionate approach and am extremely supportive. As you do therapy, you will have someone alongside you the whole way; you are not in this alone. Some fun facts about me: I was born in Switzerland, and I love to travel.

Christina Garges

Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D

As a therapist, I value forming a relationship with the people I work with. I bring a lot of curiosity into my work, and I invite you to be curious about yourself as well. You will find understanding and compassion in session; this is a judgment-free zone. A fun fact about me: I've been practicing muay thai kickboxing for the past four years. I love how much it challenges me mentally as I use my body and brain together. It's built my confidence, and it's continued to humble me.

Meghan McKenzie

As a therapist, I utilize compassion and understanding to help build bridges that may exist while implementing evidence-based treatments that effectively target problematic areas. A fun fact about me: When I'm not doing therapy, my favorite hobby is listening to live music.

Anna Chung

Registered Associate Therapist, CSW

With OCD, it can be scary to share your thoughts. I try to create a safe space where you can be yourself and share freely without fear of judgment. A few fun facts about me: I try to walk 10,000 steps every day. I love hiking and usually arrange an annual trip with my friends to different national parks each year.

Jordan Yarbrough

As a therapist, I like to create an environment that feels laid-back and direct, not sterile or clinical. It's my goal just to show up as myself. I'm also a very direct therapist, and I don't sugarcoat things. I do deep work to ensure you're working toward your goals, but you're the one who is driving the treatment. Fun facts about me: I have a hamster named Moody, I play the ukulele, and I really love to do karaoke.

Anna Newton

As a therapist, I want you to be comfortable and feel cared for, to feel like you can talk to me like you're talking to a friend. I'm here for you. You're going to be okay, and you're in good hands. We're in this together. Some fun facts about me: I love animals and have two cats and two dogs. I was in the Air Force and once got a chance to go to Antarctica on a scientific mission.

Hannah Rodriguez

I'm a very person-centered therapist. I provide a space that is safe and non-judgmental, where people can show up with whatever they have going on, and know that I'm going to be there to meet them. I'm not going to run away or get scared. You can bring anything to the table, and you'll be met with kindness, compassion, and empathy in every session, no matter what. A fun fact about me: I have started roller skating. I've seen so many parallels between therapy and roller skating. I keep going and keep trying, even though I fall. Knowing that I'll always get back up again is so freeing.

Roohinee Santram

I take a humanistic approach to therapy. In our sessions, I will hold space for you as a whole person. There's more to you than your diagnosis—that's just a small part of who you are. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to garden. Where I grew up, we were very connected to the food we ate; we knew where everything came from. It's fun to pick things out of the garden and cook them. I particularly like to grow all kinds of hot peppers.

Tara Rossine

As a therapist, I always try to lead with empathy and support. I truly believe you're the expert on your own life, so I want to put you in the driver's seat. I always make sure we're learning skills in session, so you have kind of a toolbox to use until we meet again. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to cook. I'm always in the kitchen, coming up with new vegetarian recipes or desserts. I'm always down to bake a pie or experiment with food. That's how I do self-care.

Makayla Gerhardt

My first priority as a therapist is to build trust. I know the thoughts you're having might be distressing. You can tell me anything. I won't judge you, and I will meet you where you're at, as an individual. Some fun facts about me: Every week, I get a Netflix DVD—yes, a physical DVD—sent to me. I love cinema. I also love watching The Price Is Right. I think I'm an older woman inside.

Samuel Munoz

I will work with you from a place of understanding. I'd really like to get to know you and what your individual challenges are. I will meet you where you're at. Then, we can work hand-in-hand to learn skills that will help manage your OCD. This will be a very individualized process. When I'm not doing therapy, my wife and I like to take long walks with our dog Luca. She really grounds us. She's nine years old now and still has the energy of a puppy.

Kim Glassner

As a therapist, I really try to orient the people I work with to the nature of OCD, and why ERP works and other therapies don't. You'll learn about the fear structure and how to break the OCD cycle. A fun fact about me: I'm from Wyoming—I've lived there my whole life—and I like to get out, enjoy the outdoors and go on camping trips when the weather allows.

Lulu Skafi

Acceptance is at the core of the work that I do. With OCD, you may feel a lot of fear, worry, and anxiety about the particular struggle you happen to be having. I will help you learn how to sit in that space. As a therapist, I am genuine and trustworthy—we can do this together. A fun fact about me: I have lived in two different ancient lands: Jerusalem and Egypt.

Andrea Kilroy

When I meet with members, I am very person-centered. I try to look at things from your perspective and understand your story—what happened in your life that brought you to where you are right now? Outside of work, I'm a plant mom—I have a little jungle in my living room—and I'm a certified scuba diver.

Joshua Hamrick

One of the most important things about therapy is the connection and relationship between a therapist and the person seeking therapy. I work really hard not only to help both of us feel connected and heard but also for you to feel like this is a partnership. We're going to get a little uncomfortable together, because that's where most of the good work happens. Outside of work, I really enjoy spending time with my family and my daughter, cooking new foods, and playing chess.

Betty Blanc

I'm a very collaborative therapist. The foundation of my practice is being a good listener. I listen to what you're bringing to a session, and we'll work together on how you'd like to move forward. I will match your pace, and challenge you when you're ready. Outside of work, I love spending time with my family. We go to the beach a lot. A fun fact: We have a tortoise, and her name is Jessica.

Matthew McKinley

I prioritize human connection. We're here as two humans, trying to improve those negative symptoms that you want to change. I will help you feel understood, and I hope you will understand me. In session, we will look at what OCD does in your daily life; I won't throw buzzwords at you. A fun fact about me: I have been studying with a Tibetan lama for 15 years. That study, and that Buddhist community I've found, has changed my life.

Brittany Stevens

As a therapist, I emphasize collaboration and our relationship. In all therapy, the relationship between therapist and member is fundamental, but I think it's even more important in ERP, because we talk about stuff that's really hard, sit in the shame that might come up, and navigate that together. I like to add a touch of humor when it's appropriate—I think striking the right balance between light and difficult is important. Outside of work, I love to perform in a local theater. Musicals are my thing.

Brenda Ibarra

OCD can create overwhelming cycles. As a therapist, I strive to show the connections between how you think, how you act, and how you feel, and how we can break those cycles. A fun fact about me is that I love nature. I've been a runner all my life and now have picked up amateur hiking, which is a fun way to discover nearby natural beauty, especially waterfalls.

Leah Kawleski

Registered Associate Therapist, MFT

I want therapy with me to feel warm, inviting, and conversational. But I'll also be firm enough to support you with the hard tasks they're doing. Outside of work, I have a one-and-a-half-year-old and a four-month-old, and I love listening to true crime podcasts when I have the time.

Jessica Young

I will take the time to get to know you, your interests, and what excites you. I like to incorporate mindfulness into sessions. Yoga is a big part of my life and has really helped me with my own anxiety. Outside of work, I like being active outdoors, whether it's doing yoga in my backyard, going for a walk, or spending time at the beach with a good book. That's how I practice self-care.

Stephen Gigliotti

I'm a very collaborative therapist. I am big on psychoeducation—I will help you learn about OCD and why we're doing what we do in therapy. I will never ask you to do an exposure I wouldn't do myself. Some fun facts about me: I enjoy hiking whenever I can, and I'm a big video gamer. Sometimes I use video games as a metaphor in therapy: we're not going to be jumping into the level 30s when we're only at level 1. We're going to work on the lower levels to build up our tolerance and abilities.

Kelsey Hernandez

I'm really big on the idea that you get out of therapy what you put into it. I'm your GPS, and you're in the driver's seat. I'm here to support and guide you to your destination. But you're still the one who’s in charge. A few fun facts about me: I just got a puppy who has been consuming most of my free time. I've also done three international trips solo—to Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and Thailand.

Brittany Gregory

I am warm, open, and empathetic. I want you to feel like you can have a cup of coffee and just talk to me. Therapy with me is relaxed and mellow.

He is a real cuddle bug.

Jonathan Sickinger

I really believe in person-centered therapy. You are the expert in your life and what's going on right now.

As a therapist, I want to create a non-judgmental space where everyone feels welcome and believes they can truly be themselves and grow. Outside of therapy, I love traveling. A fun fact about me: I love cats and have just given two kittens a home.

Stephanie Parker

Through personal experience, I understand the importance of creating a safe and supportive therapy environment. I approach all of my members with empathy and kindness, ensuring that the care that I provide is trauma-informed, gender-affirming, culturally sensitive, and evidence-based. I value meeting each person where they are and helping them reach their goals with encouragement, self-love, compassion, forgiveness, and healing. Some fun facts about me: Outside of work, my number one favorite thing to do is attend concerts. I have one booked pretty much all the time. I live less than a mile from the beach, so I love walking or riding my bike there. And I have a pet chameleon, who is kind of my baby.

Alessandra Rizzotti

I'm a solution-focused and goal-oriented therapist. I can also be pretty irreverent and like to use my sense of humor. I focus both on acceptance of the self, as well as change, when creating an action-oriented plan for the people I work with. A few fun facts about me: I'm a beekeeper, and I really like doing art interventions. I used to be a writer and editor, so I like to harness my creativity.

Lilyvette Perez

Associate Therapist, ACSW

My approach is focused on helping individuals better understand and work through uncomfortable feelings in a safe environment. We are all unique, and the ways we cope can be learned and unlearned. Sometimes we just need a bit of guidance. Outside of work, I love nature and spending time outdoors. I spend a lot of my free time learning, hiking, going to the beach, and exercising.

Tal Medovoy

I try to balance the need for hard work—pushing my members to challenge themselves and to face their fears—with a sense of compassion and understanding for how difficult that can be. I will meet you where you're at. But I will push you to work as hard as you possibly can, so you can achieve your goals as quickly as possible. Outside of work, I have two rescue dogs at home. One of my favorite things to do when I'm not working is spend time with them.

Jessica Spaman

Registered Associate Therapist, CSW

I have over 10 years of clinical experience working with adults, adolescents, and children across a variety of settings. As a therapist, I aim to create an empathetic, non-judgmental space where people can feel comfortable opening up and truly feel seen, understood, and less alone in their struggles. I enjoy helping others find the courage and motivation to lean into temporary discomfort in order to change, grow, and reach their full potential. I am creative, solution-focused, and take an integrative mind-body approach to therapy, often encouraging clients to incorporate movement, meditation and mindfulness into their self care ritual. In addition to being a therapist, I’m a certified fitness trainer, coach, and yoga teacher. I love using movement as a powerful tool for building strength and resilience in body and mind.

Venita Polonio

I'm an energetic, positive, and encouraging therapist. When we meet, I'd like to learn as much as I can about you and where you're at, so I can support you and collaborate with you. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to paint landscapes and do karaoke, whether it's in person at a karaoke lounge or at home on a karaoke app.

Kari Wolsky

As a therapist, I strive to be warm, authentic, encouraging, and empowering. I find joy and fulfillment in helping others to find and fulfill their purpose and to live fully. A fun fact about me: I have been singing and performing since about the age of 7 and grew up singing country-western music. I sing different types of music, from classical to R & B, and play the piano, drums, and guitar.

Vanessa Duran

The most important aspect of treatment is to have somebody you can talk to, who you feel comfortable with. Somebody who's going to listen to you and you feel you can trust. Making sure that that therapeutic alliance is established is my number one priority. Outside of work, I really enjoy crafting. I love to make homemade gifts for friends and family.

Kristen Griffin

Associate Therapist, ACSW

I strive to create a safe space, a place where people feel like they can say anything and everything that relates to treatment. I take a very collaborative approach. I will make sure you have a full understanding of their OCD and treatment and that we have specific, clear goals and outcomes. When I'm not working, you can find me outside, doing pretty much anything outdoors.

Monique Overstreet

I am a compassionate and honest therapist. I'm going to help you do the work, but you have to really do the work. I like to focus on action: How can we utilize skills in different parts of our lives to bring relief? Outside of work, I'm a new mom, and I enjoy reading in my leisure time.

Sydney Johnston

I'm a strengths-based counselor and very client-centered. This is a safe place where you can feel comfortable and really open up. I'll help you find your strengths. I'm looking forward to sharing research-based approaches that actually work. Outside of work, I love K-Pop. My daughter and I go to concerts and do a lot of fun stuff around that.

Christopher Weston

My approach to treating OCD is to first meet the member where they are at, with no judgment. I love working collaboratively with members and watching them improve their lives. It is so exciting to see members’ confidence take hold as they experience genuine happiness and zest for life!

Reanna Irigoyen

I'm a collaborative therapist, and I like to get to know a person. I take a friendly, open, objective approach. I want to be that support you need. Sessions are usually kicked back and relaxed. When I'm not doing therapy, I love cooking, particularly exotic foods. I have a real artistic interest in it.

Rachel Baumann

Licensed Therapist, M.A.

My practice is rooted in honest connection and a safe therapeutic relationship. I will meet you where you are, with the utmost empathy, patience, and understanding. We will go at your pace, and through our work together, you will learn strategies to cope with difficult events and live a more fulfilled and meaningful life. When I'm not doing therapy, I love being outside with my dog and meeting with my book club.

Chelsea Wise-Diangson

I'm a direct therapist who balances warmth and humor with let's-get-to-work aspects. I want you to understand the interventions I'm using and why I'm using them, and I want you to feel comfortable asking questions if you don't understand or don't feel comfortable. Outside of work, pre-pandemic, I was heavily involved in an adult dodgeball league. I really enjoy meeting new people, hanging out, and having fun. (I'm not actually any good at dodgeball.

Jendaya Clark

I am a patient, warm, and understanding therapist. I challenge members to be able to do the work of therapy in a supportive, comfortable environment. When I'm not doing therapy, I am trying to learn French and Creole. So far I have two plants, and I'm hoping to become more of a plant mom.

Sarah Uberti

Licensed Therapist, MS/LPC

As a therapist, I always come from a place of non-judgment and empathy. I try to fully understand the person I'm working with. I believe that education is important; when people understand the different facets of what they're experiencing, they can tackle it better. Outside of work, I'm a bit of a gamer. I love to play tabletop games like D&D, online games like MMOs and survival games. I also love taking hikes and playing with my dog.

Brittany Phillips

I believe therapy should be a relaxed, calm environment where you can lead at your own pace. We're going to tackle the things you're concerned about, but I want you to feel safe enough to collaborate with me. I really like to use fear ladders as a tool—what is the thing that will create the least amount of anxiety that we can work toward? And then what's the hardest, and how can we build up to that level? A fun fact about me: I am originally from New Orleans. I love the city's cooking and culture, and I go to Mardi Gras annually. It's the highlight of my year.

Anedra China

Licensed Therapist, NCC

I am a very person-centered therapist. I love seeing someone who is challenged with something make even one step toward working through that challenge. I love seeing people recognize, 'I've got this going on, and I need to try to figure it out.' Outside of work, I love playing basketball and doing anything related to home decor. Quiet time is important to me, and I prioritize that as a form of self-care.

Alyssa Lentz

I practice what I preach. I'm very open with the people I work with about what we're doing and what my experience with OCD has been. I like to make sure members guide the session as much as they can, and I like to incorporate humor as much as possible to lighten the mood. Outside of work, I like hanging out with my dogs Miko and Flick. A random fun fact about me: My two-year-old child was born in a Texas snowstorm.

Leana DeVoe

As a therapist, I believe it's hard to sustain our day-to-day lives by ourselves. I tend to ground therapy in helping to create and foster connections and support systems, so you don't feel as isolated at the end of therapy as you did in the beginning. I like to get a good understanding of what your OCD looks like on a day-to-day basis. We'll use ERP to confront and cope with those thoughts constructively, setting realistic goals. Outside of work, I enjoy being with my three cats. They are my happy place at the end of the day. When I'm not with my cats, I'm typically enjoying a theme park. Universal Studios, Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, you name it, I try to be there.

Amanda McGovern

I have personal experience with anxiety and other mental health conditions in my family and my friend group. Mental health challenges affect almost everyone in a deeply personal way at some point in their life, and I’m grateful that people are starting to feel more comfortable sharing that, because it was not that way at the start of my career. I aim to give people a supportive environment in which they can habituate to OCD in a way that gives long-term relief. Outside of work, I love spending time with my kids, creating things, reading, and spending time with animals and in nature.

Marie Albertson

OCD and anxiety are related but different. My ability to empathize and be solution-focused work in both treatment cases. Outside of work, I love writing, art, and swimming.

Alyssa Cruz

Associate Therapist, ASW

I will meet you where you are and offer support and understanding. This may be a new process for you, and there may be some uncomfortable and difficult things we have to work through, but there is hope. You can manage your symptoms so they aren't so impactful in your life. Outside of work, I love crafting, drawing, and painting, and caring for my plants.

Catherine Nakonetschny

For me, therapy is a journey. It's my privilege to walk with people and help them get to where they want to go. To me, this is a partnership. I don't lead my sessions. You lead our sessions, and I work as a guide. You are your own best expert on your life. When I'm not doing therapy, I have a lot of hobbies. I love to crochet, and I am an avid Winnie the Pooh fan.

Elizabeth Iniguez

I am grateful to have a front-row seat into the transformation and growth of the people I work with. It’s what I love most about what I do. I will start by conducting an in-depth assessment to understand what's at the core of your obsessions, so we can work together to tailor a plan to your individual needs. Outside of work, I love to read, puzzle, garden, and spend time with my spouse, our incredible daughter, and our three dogs and cat. A fun fact about me: I rear monarch butterflies to help grow the nearly-extinct monarch butterfly population.

Sarah Blechman

I work to create an environment where you'll feel safe and comfortable enough to allow yourself to be understood by another person. We'll work from there and apply real, tangible solutions so you can experience meaningful and significant change. Outside of work, I enjoy practicing yoga, gardening, and swimming in the ocean.

Amalia Sirica

Licensed Therapist, LCHMC

My approach as a therapist is to be gentle, compassionate, and patient. But at the same time, we want to get you better. I am solution-focused and empowerment-based—our goal is to get you feeling good and standing on your own. When I'm not doing therapy, I really love to dance. It's my favorite thing in the world.

Shaniece Hopkins

I’m very laid back and I try to encourage my members to steer the wheel. However, I’m very big on psychoeducation—education around your diagnosis will help you truly grasp the concepts at hand and make significant progress. We all have experienced mental health, and it impacts everyone differently. Your journey will never look the same as someone else’s. I love to educate myself and my members. So anytime I find something new that will be helpful, you can be sure that I will share with you. Knowledge is power!

Latasha Gary

I've always been interested in how people think and behave. I became a counselor after a 20-year career in retail—I was more interested in helping my customers than selling them a product. A fun fact about me: I love British mysteries. Poirot, Marple, Midsomer Murders—every weekend, all day. I’ve gotten my entire family involved in them.

Kaylee Simon

First and foremost, I want therapy with me to feel extremely comfortable. You can expect me to be a kind and compassionate listener, while encouraging you to challenge your intrusive thoughts. You can also expect me to highlight the progress you're making and celebrate the wins with you! Outside of work, I love being active, cooking, doing pottery, and spending time with friends and family.

Dani Gold

Licensed Therapist, M.A.

I aim to make our sessions individualized and work collaboratively. Together, we will determine the goals you want to work toward that will help you develop more control over your symptoms and your life. After, you'll be able to take the tools we learn and use them in the outside world, even when therapy ends. A fun fact about me: When I'm not doing therapy, I love taking my dog for walks on the beach; I live just five minutes away from the water.

Shelby Kruse

We all have intrusive thoughts. There will never be a time during our work together that the thoughts you share will carry judgment. As a therapist, I love witnessing folks reclaim their lives and rebuild confidence to integrate the things that bring them joy. Outside of work, I am a mama and have a four-year-old daughter who is the light of my life. I love interior design, true crime podcasts, and working out.

Michael Ceccon

My goal as a therapist is to really tune in to the person I'm working with, to get a feeling for where they're at and what their needs are. I want to support you where you are. A fun fact about me: I'm a very big nerd. I'm into all things nerdy, including video games, Dungeons & Dragons, you name it

Carrie Wells

At the core, I approach our work in therapy as a partner and collaborator. I don't profess to know any member better than they know themselves. We are always a team. When I’m not working, I love to be outdoors. I like to spend time with my horse whenever possible, as I'm endlessly learning the art of dressage. I also love my family and my dog. I enjoy traveling when I’m able, as I love to meet new people and see and learn new things.

Joanna Flemister

Associate Therapist, ACSW

Therapy is a partnership. I will try to make sure that you're comfortable and that I understand what triggers your OCD. Both of us will come up with a hierarchy for treatment, and your input is very important to me. I will take care if you're nervous or scared, while also gently pushing you in the right direction. Outside of work, I love being with my girls, dancing, making art, writing, and surfing.

Aura Restrepo

I consider myself to be a supporter and advocate for your journey. In our work together, you can expect a collaborative, warm, non-judgmental environment that supports growth. On a more personal note, I enjoy being in nature, spending time with family and friends, trying new foods, learning new cultures, and dancing. I'm bilingual and speak both English and Spanish.

Ricky Lau

I consider myself a strengths-based practitioner. I believe that every person has innate strengths, even if the individual cannot recognize it at the moment. Modern culture and social expectations can be very pathologizing. Instead of focusing on everything that is going wrong, I like to highlight and build on strengths that can create a foundation for someone’s recovery. You’ll be surprised how strong you can be! When I’m not working, I enjoy the outdoors. I love to go fishing, hiking, camping, and spending time with my daughter.

Christine Vara

I try to bring an authentic experience to the people I work with. I aim to create a safe space. I like to laugh a lot, because that helps foster connection and normalize the process of therapy. When I'm not doing therapy, I enjoy practicing kickboxing and martial arts, and my guilty pleasure is watching the Bachelor franchise.

Daniel Feinstein

My approach to treating OCD is to focus on collaboration and empowerment. It is really important to work as a team. I try to use my expertise to help people feel more powerful in their ability to help themselves. Outside of work, my hobbies include traveling, hiking, and sports. I am a huge basketball and football fan as well as a major movie buff.

Ashly Huffstatler

My approach to treating OCD is 'Members first.' You are the expert on your OCD. We will work as partners in treatment. I will help guide, but you are in charge. My style is direct and compassionate. Outside of work, I love all things Disney, Star Wars, Star Trek, and Harry Potter. I am an avid reader and a big animal lover: I have a cocker spaniel named Kyle. I enjoy doing yoga and at-home boxing. I also enjoy traveling and trying new experiences, even when they make me nervous. I'm living the ERP life, just like you!

Samka Aslan

I create a safe environment where you feel heard, understood, valued, and respected. My approach is non-judgmental, and my interest is in helping you to overcome or better cope with whatever's causing difficulty in your life. You are the expert on your own life. I am here to educate, guide and support you toward your goals. When I'm not doing therapy, I'm trying to learn to ice skate and am interested in gymnastics. I like to travel, listen to music, and spend time with my dogs. A fun fact about me: I've lived in Europe and got to spend a few months in Australia.

Jessica Oliver

In therapy, I will meet you where you're at. I will provide the encouragement and support you need to work through those hard situations, even when anxiety makes you want to quit. My experience and specialities are unique, and I've worked with people from many different backgrounds. I run a non-profit mental health facility that specializes in rescuing and rehabilitating horses to work alongside veterans and first responders in overcoming trauma they have experienced. My ranch and children take up most of my free time, and I enjoy spending that time with my animals.

Meghan Cromie

I understand how anxiety and fear can affect us. In OCD therapy, I work to help people overcome their fears, gain confidence, and take back control of their lives. When I'm not doing therapy, I love cooking and eating spicy foods, going to the beach, and anime.

Tara Hegg

I am a human-centered therapist. I can appreciate how difficult treatment can be, and I never forget that there is a human being sitting across from me. I lead with self-compassion, patience, and kindness. And I ask my members to do the same for themselves. Outside of work, I like to spend my time listening to music and dancing, hanging out with friends and family, and engaging in enjoyable physical movement.

Sarah Peterman

I like to collaborate with my members to develop a plan specific to the individual's needs as I implement evidence-based ERP strategies to achieve results. I am warm and compassionate, and I use humor throughout the treatment process. I find that this helps members feel comfortable and supported while I actively encourage them to lean into their discomfort and challenge OCD. I also frequently talk about the importance of self-compassion, acceptance, and living out your values. Outside of work, I love spending time with my dog, cat, and human family. I also volunteer weekly at a therapeutic horseback riding program for individuals with disabilities, and love reading and listening to music in my downtime.

Seth Sultan

I use a collaborative and compassionate approach to treat OCD. I enjoy using creativity and humor to help people challenge themselves to move beyond old patterns and into the life they want to live. Outside of work, I enjoy being outdoors in nature and spending time with family and friends.

Grace Rezendes

I approach all sessions with kindness and absolutely no judgment. I offer frequent psychoeducation and explain each step of the process to members. I encourage members to utilize self-compassion and humor in the treatment process. I wholeheartedly and enthusiastically believe in the success of my members. Outside of sessions, I love taking ballet classes, making pottery, and reading. I have two pups named Honey and Sydney.
