My approach to OCD treatment is a balanced one. I reinforce the behavioral work necessary to manage symptoms, while remaining sensitive and collaborative for individuals who are struggling. A major part of OCD therapy is getting comfortable with being uncomfortable; doing so in the short term enables long-term improvement. I'll provide a safe space for you to share things that may feel difficult, shameful or uncomfortable to explore. You'll be treated with the care, sensitivity and warmth you deserve. My other focus areas include anxiety, mood disorders, ADHD, life transitions, identity/role confusion, generational stressors, and addiction.
