My approach to OCD therapy is collaborative, structured, and warm. I recognize that OCD rarely exists in isolation: a person's background, culture, and life story are important. When working with someone on their OCD, I pay attention to how shame, trauma, or identity struggles might reinforce the cycle. I create space for you to understand yourself and feel seen, and I bring honesty, curiosity, and a good sense of humor to the process. In addition to OCD, I help people manage anxiety, perfectionism, health-related stress, life transitions, and identity development.
