Meet our licensed OCD therapists available for live video sessions in Arizona. We accept many insurance plans, including Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, and BCBS to treat OCD and related conditions in Phoenix, Tucson, Mesa, and surrounding areas. We also offer many affordable options to help people access treatment if we don't accept their insurance.
I've been working as a professional counselor and clinical trauma professional since 2008, and now I specialize in OCD treatment. When I saw people exhibiting symptoms of OCD during my sessions, I knew that there must be a better treatment out there to help them. I’m now trained to provide Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, and the more I treat people with OCD using ERP, the more results I see. The surprise in people's faces when that change happens is a great experience, and that makes me stoked to offer this phenomenal treatment to you.
Read moreI’ve been working since 2002, and as a licensed therapist, I'm amazed at how fast people with OCD can feel changes by using the right guidance and techniques. I've worked with different OCD subtypes, and I've seen that people implementing Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy bring amazing results even in severe cases. I enjoy seeing people grow from treatment. It makes my job incredibly satisfying.
Read moreI’ve been a licensed therapist for 21 years, treating OCD as well as a wide range of mental illnesses and disorders. Scientifically proven treatment for OCD is now accessible for those in need with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. Using ERP, I will help you reach your goal of overcoming OCD and finding more joy in your life.
Read moreI approach therapy with genuineness, honesty, and openness. OCD is unique to each individual, so as a therapist I'll take time to hear your story and understand where you're coming from. Outside of work, my wife and I just moved from L.A. to Arizona, where we bought a fixer-upper. I've learned to be a plumber, electrician, floor tiler, and handyman, all pretty much overnight.
Read moreAs a therapist, I'm really direct and comfortable pushing you to do what you need to do. I don't shy away from topics that you might think are weird or uncomfortable. I'm here to help you deal with those. Accountability is also important to me—we're going to talk about what's going well, and what's not going well. A fun fact about me: When I'm not in session, I love to nerd out playing board games and D&D, and try to keep my plants and mushroom gardens alive.
Read moreAs a therapist, I really try to orient the people I work with to the nature of OCD, and why ERP works and other therapies don't. You'll learn about the fear structure and how to break the OCD cycle. A fun fact about me: I'm from Wyoming—I've lived there my whole life—and I like to get out, enjoy the outdoors and go on camping trips when the weather allows.
Read moreI'm a solution-focused and goal-oriented therapist. I can also be pretty irreverent and like to use my sense of humor. I focus both on acceptance of the self, as well as change, when creating an action-oriented plan for the people I work with. A few fun facts about me: I'm a beekeeper, and I really like doing art interventions. I used to be a writer and editor, so I like to harness my creativity.
Read moreOCD and anxiety are related but different. My ability to empathize and be solution-focused work in both treatment cases. Outside of work, I love writing, art, and swimming.
Read moreAt the core, I approach our work in therapy as a partner and collaborator. I don't profess to know any member better than they know themselves. We are always a team. When I’m not working, I love to be outdoors. I like to spend time with my horse whenever possible, as I'm endlessly learning the art of dressage. I also love my family and my dog. I enjoy traveling when I’m able, as I love to meet new people and see and learn new things.
Read moreI help people understand and validate their journey through OCD while explaining the process in which freedom can be achieved from OCD through ERP. Therapy allows you to learn to face obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors in a way that builds hope, confidence, and the ability to successfully 'fire' your therapist! Outside of work, personal time involves my wife and three kids. We enjoy going on day trips, playing and watching sports, all things The Office, and spending time with friends and family.
Read moreMy approach to OCD therapy is person-centered. I work to build a therapeutic alliance and create a safe environment where you can share, without judgment, what brings you to NOCD. When I'm not working, I enjoy being active, whether it’s outside in nature or at the gym. I also love spending time with my significant other and our three pets, eating great food, and being cozy at home with some movies or shows.
Read moreOne of my strengths is creating a safe space so that you can flourish in therapy. I’m excited for you to get the chance to experience life differently. I believe in the process and I believe in you. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to read rom-coms, thrillers, and overall feel-good fiction. My kiddos and I love to pretend we are on cooking shows and try making fancy food. Some fun facts about me: I was in the Peace Corps in Kenya for two years in 2003. I lived in Latin America for various periods of time in my life and now I have to move if I hear salsa, merengue, bachata or reggaeton.
Read moreI approach OCD treatment with ERP, the gold standard for treating OCD. I want to be thorough in addressing any questions or concerns the member has. I'm a great listener and creative in solutions for next steps in treatment that can create positive outcomes for members. Outside of work, I like going to my son’s taekwondo and baseball games and my daughter’s dance and gymnastics classes. I also enjoy watching reality tv, documentaries, and crime drama series once my kids go to bed. Grabbing coffee or lunch with friends is another good way to decompress and recharge.
