About
OCD therapy may feel daunting, but you are more capable than you realize. You can do hard things. Therapy is a journey we're on together. This is a place to work toward feeling safe. I'm not here to judge; I'm here to understand. I'll help you define your goals and work toward them in every session. When we let ourselves approach things that feel uncertain, the benefits can be greater than we can think. I also specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, and family systems issues.

I feel like the part of my brain that was taken up with OCD thoughts and actions has been almost totally freed up so I can use it for being more creative and just living my life. So much angst and worry are gone, and I have the tools to deal with it when things come up. My therapist, Helene, was so understanding and also demanding, when that was needed. ERP is not comfortable, but I knew I could do it because I felt so understood and supported by Helene. I've been thinking about her lately because I'm visiting my family, and I have been doing some emotionally challenging things that would have been extremely difficult if it weren't for her help. My aunt passed away in July, and I needed to go through some things (artwork, personal tchotchkes, etc.) to decide what I wanted to take home with me. I was moderately uncomfortable while I was going through the items - mostly because my family members were sitting there with me, and I didn't want to explain about OCD and that it might be hard for me to make decision after decision. I also didn't feel comfortable doing as much verbal processing as I need. (I think I ended up doing a "normal" amount of having trouble deciding and of thinking out loud.) It definitely wasn't unbearable, and when I got finished, I was really surprised at how calm I felt. I'm proud of myself and so thankful for Helene's help!
