My approach to treating OCD is compassionate and direct, with a touch of levity. OCD can feel exhausting and debilitating—you're constantly seeking reassurance and engaging in compulsions, but it's never enough. But, exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy puts you in the driver's seat, so you can live life according to your true values, not based on OCD's rules. We do this by slowing things down, and teaching you how to tolerate discomfort and uncertainty. I have experience working with depression, substance use, and trauma, which enables me to offer an integrative treatment for OCD and anxiety.

Good experienceSessions with Melissa have been incredible. I cannot recommend her enough. She is supportive, understanding, and kind, while not being reassuring which would fuel OCD. Thank you Melissa for everything.
