As your OCD therapist, I'll be there with you at every step, making sure you receive the care and attention you deserve. I'll help you confront your fears and see that OCD doesn't have to control you. I'm patient, supportive, and strengths-based, meaning I'll focus on your positive actions. Therapy isn't about making 100% progress immediately. I love giving my Members the space to talk — and to grow. You're stronger and more capable than you might think. I also have experience helping those dealing with depression and trauma.

Why our members love working with Sarah
J.D.
Sarah has been professional and personable. She runs sessions efficiently, and drills into topics when I need deeper details. She has taught me how to identify and approach my OCD so that I remove its power over me, resulting in greatly lowered symptoms. I have often felt overwhelmed by the process of NoCD therapy. 2 sessions per week with 3-7 homework assignments is a lot to sustain over months when you have other life obligations. I am glad that it has lead to results, but at times I felt like the intensity and frequency of therapy was leading to burnout. Overall, I would still recommend Sarah and NoCD to a friend, especially given the results I can notice and feel.
P.Z.
Sarah is very calm, cool and collected as I navigate the myriad of ocd and stinking thinking scenarios that I have. She validates me, corrects my mismanaged thoughts and helps me to know that, although a difficult path, the benefits of daily practice and ERP can help mitigate the symptoms of ocd and formulate ways to combat the pestering thoughts. I hope everyone can have the help they need through NoCD like Sarah provides!
