About

As a therapist, I'm very collaborative and direct. I like to meet people where they're at. I enjoy 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. As long as you're still willing to keep going with therapy, you're succeeding. I have experience treating anxiety and panic disorders, in addition to borderline personality disorder and emotional dysregulation.

    Faran is fair, even-handed, and effective. She listens and is well-versed in identifying OCD behaviors, even when they are particularly sneaky. With her you will make progress as long as you are willing to do the work! So excited about the progress I’ve made with Faran.
