I take a direct, non-judgmental, and personable approach to working with others on OCD. Know that you are not alone. Although these symptoms can make you feel isolated, they are extremely normal and treatable. OCD and anxiety are fueled by irrational fear that is often poorly treated by short-term solutions; NOCD Therapy offers long-term relief. My other areas of focus include depression, phobias, and generalized anxiety. I find it gratifying to help people understand how to effectively navigate these challenges.

Good experience

Wade is a skilled and empathetic therapist. I really enjoyed my time working with him and can't recommend him enough. Working with him was very helpful for learning to manage my hair pulling.

Good experience

I can’t say enough good things about Wade. I came to him in one of my life’s deepest lows- I’m talking not showering, not eating, barely walking 500 steps a day. Now, six months later my life is completely transformed. He is such a great mix of easygoing/ personable and aggressive towards treatment - he’s been a fantastic accountability partner and has really felt like a friend walking me through this rather than a scary stranger. Not to mention his cultural competency, where as a queer person I’ve never felt my gender or sexuality stigmatized or misunderstood in the slightest. I feel so grateful to have him as a partner in this struggle, and can’t thank NOCD enough for training him up! This guy ROCKS!

NOCD has changed my life. I’ve been in therapy for years, but until I found NOCD I wasn’t having much success. The OCD focused program, and my therapist Wade is AMAZING. I now feel hopeful and excited about my future!
