About

At NOCD, you're in a safe, non-judgmental space. Know that what you're experiencing is valid. I take a comprehensive and individualized approach to OCD treatment, using evidence-based therapeutic techniques such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). With compassion and collaboration, I'll develop exercises that help desensitize the triggers that provoke your anxiety. In addition to OCD, my areas of focus include anxiety disorders, depression, grief, and trauma-related conditions.
