OCD Specialists in
Florida

I’ve been practicing as a licensed therapist since 2008. My main area of focus is OCD with specialized training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. I use ERP to treat people with all types of OCD themes, including aggressive, taboo, and a range of other unique types.

Sandra Shern

I'm fortunate to have seen Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy help people with OCD when I worked at a non-profit community mental health program almost 15 years ago. The program was a great learning environment because I treated every type of mental health issue, including OCD, and saw how people's behavior changed when given proper treatment. It molded me as a therapist, and now, I'm using ERP to treat so many people that need support and guidance as they face OCD.

Nicole McCutchan

My OCD became problematic over 30 years ago. I was diagnosed incorrectly, and struggled with OCD for a long time. This affected my relationships and work for years until I found treatment that actually helped me get better, which was Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. I quit my career in IT to become a specialized OCD therapist. I myself use ERP because I know from firsthand experience that it works.

I’ve been a licensed therapist for 21 years, treating OCD as well as a wide range of mental illnesses and disorders.

As a therapist that specializes in OCD, I can help you reach your goal of putting your OCD troubles behind you. Before joining NOCD, I spent my career treating severe anxiety and trauma cases, working within community health and hospital environments.

ERP is proven to work for all subtypes and is considered the gold standard of OCD treatment.

As a therapist, I am non-judgmental. Our sessions will be very collaborative—we'll start where you are and go from there, depending on what your needs are. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to be outside. My family has a lake house in Michigan that we go to often, and I love to go there with my son and my husband to kayak when we can.

I am a LCSW with over 30 years of clinical experience in the South Florida area working with clients diagnosed with OCD, Anxiety and other Mood Disorders, Personality Disorders, Trauma, Crisis, Dual Diagnosis, and Grief & Loss.

As your therapist, I know how to guide you so that you can walk through that fear and reach the reward that awaits you.

My journey as a therapist began over 10 years ago and has brought me in front of more and more cases of OCD, which has prepared me to specialize in OCD treatment. I have experience working at intensive in-home services for children & families, and intensive outpatient programs, preparing me for any challenge you may be facing. During sessions, I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy because it’s the most effective treatment for OCD, and works for any OCD subtype.

As a therapist, I emphasize and value collaboration. I focus on creating and strengthening rapport with the people I'm working with. I will check in with you, step by step, to ensure you feel comfortable as we go through the process. A fun fact about me: I found out in middle school that I can lick my elbow, even though that's supposed to be impossible, and I can still do it. I even did it during my grad school interview. I tell people that's the only reason why I got in!

Blima Hoffman

In therapy, first and foremost, I like to develop a relationship with the person I'm working with.

My experience and specialities are unique, and I've worked with people from many different backgrounds. I run a non-profit mental health facility that specializes in rescuing and rehabilitating horses to work alongside veterans and first responders in overcoming trauma they have experienced. My ranch and children take up most of my free time, and I enjoy spending that time with my animals.

Torrie Weindorf

In therapy, empathy and forming connections are vital. I value the effort needed to challenge oneself to overcome obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Members will feel supported and encouraged throughout this process. Outside of work, I like spending my free time with family, friends, and my two dogs.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends, listening to music, dancing, working out, and watching YouTube or favorite shows.
