OCD can make you feel like your intrusive thoughts mean something about who you are—but these thoughts aren't a reflection of your values, or anything you'd do. That said, I know it's not that easy to allow intrusive thoughts to simply pass by. I’ll show you how to face these thoughts without relying on compulsions to relieve the anxiety that they cause. I happen to be a board-certified coach. Motivating people is second nature to me. I will tap into the willingness to work and overcome challenges that already lives inside you. I will walk beside you as you embark on your journey to feeling better in all aspects of your life.

I have been a lifelong sufferer of ocd and Teresa is helping me so much not only handling my ocd but also helping me manage my life stressors too. She has so much insight into ocd and has such an understanding of this illness. I am so thankful to be paired with her and look forward to meeting with her and always feel better after my sessions and have so much more hope that I can use the tools to not allow ocd to dictate my life. Thank you Teresa.

Since I started working with Theresa, my life has changed for the better! I struggle with intrusive thoughts and have always been scared to face them. Theresa has helped me SO MUCH in facing those fears and taking control! Theresa is such a great support and I highly recommend her to anyone struggling with intrusive thoughts and OCD!

I've lived with OCD for 13 years now and have previously had talk therapy, which never helped. My experience with ERP and my therapist has been incredible and truly life changing. OCD went from all consuming to a manageable and small fraction of my life. I am forever grateful and am continuing to put in the work for a better future :)

Theresa is such an incredible therapist. Empathetic, kind, attentive and thoughtful. I've been working with her for quite sometime now and can't imagine what I'd do without her. I met her at a very challenging time in my life and she's been instrumental with improving my mental fitness and my ability to effectively manage OCD. I can't say enough good things about Theresa and highly recommend working with her.
