I approach every member with curiosity instead of assumptions, wanting to understand what something means to you rather than assuming I already know. My office is a space where we can talk about things that feel difficult or embarrassing to say out loud, since OCD often carries thoughts people are terrified to share. If you're nervous about starting exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy, that makes a lot of sense. ERP is an evidence-based treatment that has been proven to be most effective for OCD, and we'll develop exposures together rather than starting with your biggest fear on day one. I also have experience with how OCD overlaps with anxiety, depression, trauma, substance use, and major life transitions.
