I became a therapist because I love to see people reach their full potential. OCD can feel pretty intense at times, so I try to make therapy feel manageable and human. Please come as you are; you never have to be embarrassed to share anything with me. I think there's a place for humor in sessions—being able to step back and laugh a little at OCD can take away some of its power. I also have experience with how OCD overlaps with depression, anxiety, substance use, and grief.
