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.
