About

I've faced obsessions and compulsions, and I understand how intrusive thoughts can impact a person's life. I am non-judgmental and compassionate. First, I'll help loosen the grip OCD has on your sense of self so we can get to work using ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention). OCD therapy is wonderfully effective when done with attention to careful collaboration and creative discussion. I also work with LGBTQ+ individuals and those with anxiety and panic disorders, ADHD, and autism spectrum disorder.

      Sarah was a brilliant therapist. She really helped me get to the core of my ocd and I leave therapy with her feeling confident that I can keep on top of this. Thank you!

      I felt understood. It felt good to discuss my issues but also hard to gauge after one session. I didn’t get too much help in terms of reassurance or being able to manage my condition and tips to help until next session, but I understand this is the way treatment works. The session was mostly me introducing myself and my troubles and discussion of the probable most effective form of treatment. She seemed to listen to me and feel what I was going through, although she would not share her thoughts or opinions on what I told her or my presumed diagnosis. I am sure this is on purpose so she can develop an effective treatment plan for my condition. Needed just a little more time but I understand she is VERY busy! I look forward to our next session and getting better!

      I am so grateful for NOCD for pairing me with Sarah! The last two months have been so great - if anyone is scared about opening up about their theme, I feel so comfortable and safe to talk about everything I am struggling with. I’ve had a lot of external therapists previously and I’ve never had a proper relationship with them but I actually enjoy talking to Sarah and look forward to our calls, not scared. She’s insightful, helpful and thoughtful. I feel like I’m chatting to a “friend” not a professional. I 1000000% would recommend Sarah, especially if u feel scared to talk about your taboo thoughts. She remembers previous information and helps you learn about yourself and appreciate all your self development and progress!
