Even though I haven't been diagnosed with OCD, I know how much anxiety can disrupt a life. Anxiety is a key part of OCD, and I want to help those with OCD reclaim control of their lives. In my years as a therapist, I've treated those with generalized anxiety disorder, substance use dependence, depression, borderline personality disorder, and schizophrenia, among other mental health issues. Therapy is a process that takes time, effort, and motivation, even if it's sometimes uncomfortable. The end result will be worth it.

Good experience

I feel like things are going good. I'm learning to acknowledge it and say maybe it will maybe it won't happen and walk away. I really like my Therapist she's been wonderful
