More about Maribel

I'm happy you're here today. The first step is the hardest, and you've done the challenging part. My approach to treating OCD is collaborative and supportive. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy is known to be the most effective OCD treatment. I create a member-centered environment where I treat you as the expert. I'm here to guide and support you. We'll work together to address barriers, experiences, and goals for improving your quality of life. I have many years of experience working with children, adolescents, and young adults on behavioral, social, emotional, and environmental concerns.

Good experience

Maribel focuses on harm reduction, creating treatment plans that don't bite off more than they can chew. Despite the focus on "baby steps," I've found my treatment to be very fruitful in just a few months. Maribel has a very calming voice, I imagine she is a great therapist for young children.

Maribel is very conscientious and listens to your concerns. Throughout my sessions, I really felt that she was and is there to help. She is diligent in practicing ERP in session as well as assigning homework to practice. Additionally, she is very communicative and will respond to you over message whatever the query may be. She is highly recommended on my end.

Good experience

I just wanted to share my experience with Maribel and the NOCD team. I learned so much in such a short time and my therapist Maribel was so supportive, caring, non-judgmental. She taught me that I’m not alone that there’s nothing wrong with me and things that I can do to overcome it. She listened and guided me and it was such a safe space. I value that time and what I learned because of my busy schedule and long commute. I hope I can come back to the NOCD team and continue my progress because just the short time in sessions I have learned so much about myself, and how strong I can be to overcome, my OCD traits thank you Maribel I wish you all the best

Good experience

I came to NOCD needing a lot of help in many different areas of OCD. My therapist, Maribel, has been absolutely incredible and vital in helping me with my OCD recovery. She listens to each of my concerns with great attention to detail and understanding. I have never had such an amazing therapist. The NOCD app is also extremely useful and easy to use. Great company overall.
