I have loved ones who've struggled with OCD. I know how limiting and disruptive it can be in your life. I also know it's possible to get better. In therapy, I'll pay close attention to your concerns. Together, we'll create a treatment plan to meet your goals. Your journey toward living life to the fullest is just beginning. You've taken the first, most difficult step on this courageous journey. I also have experience treating depression, anxiety, mood disorders, relationship/family system issues, and aging and life-transition concerns.

My therapist was very helpful in redirecting my extreme emotions about a very triggering situation into an ERP exercise. She helped me put the distress to work instead of letting me just spiral (my natural instinct). She always calm, supportive but focused on making progress. I appreciate her very much.

Caron has shown care for my daughter when she had a rough week. She gave us tools to help with specific situations. Hope and encouragement. The NOCD program is very impressive with tools & technology, highly recommend it!

After only 2 sessions it's too early for me to tell if she's the right therapist. I'll know after my 4th or 5th session I suppose.

I had one session during which I really connected with my therapist. I liked the way she explained things and was actually excited about starting therapy. Unfortunately less than 24 hours later I received an email saying that my insurance was in-network for the the company but the therapist wasn’t authorized for my exact insurance type (or something to that effect). I was informed that all future appointments were cancelled and I would not be charged for the previous intake appointment. Well lo and behold this morning i woke up to a full price, private pay invoiced session on my portal. Needless to say, I liked the therapy, not so much the billing.
