I'm an empathetic therapist. You’ll always have my support to get through to the other side, and we’ll keep working, no matter what. I have more than 20 years of experience as a professional counselor, and I believe my entire career has led me to specialize in OCD. I love working with NOCD members because I get to see real change in everyone I work with. When NOCD members do good exposure exercises, I've seen change quickly. I work with adults and adolescents; my additional specializations include hoarding and tic disorders.

Why our members love working with Ken
H.L.
Ken was not my first therapist, but I consider him as my #1 therapist because he’s been a great resource in my OCD recovery. He always takes time to listen and very good at guiding me in recovery when I have bad days. Every person’s experience with OCD is unique, but I chose Ken because his experience allows him to truly understand how isolating, strange, and uncomfortable my experience with OCD can be.

My daughter has a very kind, motivating therapist. We so much appreciate all his work with her.

I’m answering for my teenage son. So I can only speak from my point of view. But his therapist gets him to engage and makes him feel comfortable speaking his mind. That’s not always easy with a teenager.

My daughter is very happy with her therapist. I feel he has great insight as to what she is dealing with.

It is so nice to finally have someone who has an understanding of what my daughter is going through and a plan of action to move forward (mom commenting for 14yr old daughter). We had a very nice first meeting.

My therapist got me like no other therapists or people I have cried for help. I will definitely continue working with him. I rejoice and sang after session, as my heart felt hope and validated that I’m not crazy nor alone in this battle.
