Judy Lair

Licensed Therapist, LPCC

I’m headed for my 21st year as a licensed therapist and love helping people break free from OCD. I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy during sessions, which I learned how to use early on in my practice. I have only grown to become more confident in my ability to treat people effectively using ERP. I’m a published writer, including a book on OCD and how to move from fear to freedom. I’m excited to work with you and can’t wait to set you up for success in your ERP journey.

Kathryn Ciraolo

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I've been a licensed clinical social worker with over 16 years of extensive experience, with much of my career working in a hospital setting where I saw many people with OCD (along with other issues such as trauma, depression, and anxiety). I also have a brother that suffers from OCD, and I’ve seen the impact OCD can have at home. People with OCD can make great progress in treatment when Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is used. ERP is very focused because it can be tailored for any OCD subtype. I'm motivated to teach you how to manage your OCD so you can reach your highest level of independence.

Mayra Nieto

Licensed Therapist, LPC

I’ve been a licensed therapist since 2013, and with extensive training from NCOD, I now specialize in treating every OCD subtype. During sessions, I will use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy to build your confidence so you can perform exercises when OCD strikes. But first, I’ll show you how to overcome your fears and obsessions. ERP has a proven record of success and can help you get your life back.

Melissa Pickett

Licensed Therapist, LPCC

I saw a close family member struggle with severe mental illness, and it made me want to be a part of people’s journey toward wellness and healing. I believe in a holistic approach to health. Outside of work, I'm a runner and love to do yoga; I've been practicing for more than five years.

Ashly Huffstatler

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

My approach to treating OCD is 'Members first.' You are the expert on your OCD. We will work as partners in treatment. I will help guide, but you are in charge. My style is direct and compassionate. Outside of work, I love all things Disney, Star Wars, Star Trek, and Harry Potter. I am an avid reader and a big animal lover: I have a cocker spaniel named Kyle. I enjoy doing yoga and at-home boxing. I also enjoy traveling and trying new experiences, even when they make me nervous. I'm living the ERP life, just like you!
