Why our members love working with Rue
M.M.
Rue is awesome. She has helped me to more fully understand my OCD and then begin the slow journey of conquering it. I feel as if I can be truly honest with her.

After 5 years of suffering in silence, and having tried other types of therapy, I finally found Nocd, ERP & Rue. Rue was the first therapist I was paired with & I wouldn't change that for the world. Whether it is just providing a safe space for me to discuss what I am currently feeling, experiencing or struggling with, or if it is actively working through triggers & exposures, I always leave our sessions feeling positive, ready to face the day & confident that I have someone who will always provide me with positive, sound advice. Exposures can be scary at times, but I have always felt there is someone there as my safety net when I need it - and that's Rue. I used to (and I sometimes still do!) struggle with the shame and embarrassment that comes with certain OCD themes and anxiety; however, Rue has continuously helped me with reframing my thinking, becoming more self compassionate and acknowledging every win (especially the small ones). If you do choose to do ERP therapy with Rue, you won't regret it!! ❤️

Rue is amazing. I always leave sessions feeling like I spent a productive hour bettering myself! She is excellent at helping me navigate my OCD while educating me in the process. I appreciate her guidance SO much.
