I enjoy guiding others out of their OCD and showing them the light at the end of the tunnel. The best reward for me is watching people improve. I've been a licensed OCD therapist since 2011, having earned a Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work. OCD is so destructive but yet treatable with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, the most proven and effective treatment for OCD.
Read moreI’ve been treating people for over 16 years, and now specialize in OCD. My background includes over 8 years of private practice that put me in front of OCD cases, as well as depression, trauma, and PTSD. During our time, I’ll use a therapy called ERP (known as Exposure and Response Prevention) which I’ve been skilled in for quite some time. I researched and learned exposure therapy after my very first OCD patient years ago and I can attest to its incredible effectiveness.
Read moreI’ve been in the mental health space since 2007 and a licensed therapist for almost 10 years. I’ve treated OCD in multiple group practice facilities, and also specialize in trauma, anxiety, and depression treatment. I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy to treat OCD not just because it's backed by research, but it allows me to tailor treatment to your personal needs. With my experience in exposure therapy, I can help you reach your goal of recovery throughout our sessions.
Read moreI understand what you’re going through, because I have struggled with OCD myself. Outside of work, I enjoy true-crime books and podcasts, and I love being in nature. I once hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon and back up in one day. That's about 10 hours. I didn't think I'd make it, but I did. It was a great experience—but next time I'll spend the night before hiking back up.
Read moreAs a therapist, I'm very direct, but also open, empathetic and patient. I look forward to working together with you to ease your struggles and make your life a lot better. In my spare time, I enjoy watching movies and spending time with my son, who's eight. I love to get outdoors and go for hikes. I think exercise is really important for reducing stress and supporting mental health.
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 experiment with cooking and subject my family to the results, for better or worse.
Read moreI'm a very person-centered therapist. I provide a space that is safe and non-judgmental, where people can show up with whatever they have going on, and know that I'm going to be there to meet them. I'm not going to run away or get scared. You can bring anything to the table, and you'll be met with kindness, compassion, and empathy in every session, no matter what. A fun fact about me: I have started roller skating. I've seen so many parallels between therapy and roller skating. I keep going and keep trying, even though I fall. Knowing that I'll always get back up again is so freeing.
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 very collaborative therapist. I am big on psychoeducation—I will help you learn about OCD and why we're doing what we do in therapy. I will never ask you to do an exposure I wouldn't do myself. Some fun facts about me: I enjoy hiking whenever I can, and I'm a big video gamer. Sometimes I use video games as a metaphor in therapy: we're not going to be jumping into the level 30s when we're only at level 1. We're going to work on the lower levels to build up our tolerance and abilities.
Read moreI'm really big on the idea that you get out of therapy what you put into it. I'm your GPS, and you're in the driver's seat. I'm here to support and guide you to your destination. But you're still the one who’s in charge. A few fun facts about me: I just got a puppy who has been consuming most of my free time. I've also done three international trips solo—to Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and Thailand.
Read moreI strive to create a safe space, a place where people feel like they can say anything and everything that relates to treatment. I take a very collaborative approach. I will make sure you have a full understanding of their OCD and treatment and that we have specific, clear goals and outcomes. When I'm not working, you can find me outside, doing pretty much anything outdoors.
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 am a human-centered therapist. I can appreciate how difficult treatment can be, and I never forget that there is a human being sitting across from me. I lead with self-compassion, patience, and kindness. And I ask my members to do the same for themselves. Outside of work, I like to spend my time listening to music and dancing, hanging out with friends and family, and engaging in enjoyable physical movement.
