I’ve treated OCD, as well as other forms of mental health challenges, for almost 20 years. I’ve used Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy elements in general cases for trauma and PTSD, but now I provide specialized care for those dealing with OCD. I have experience treating all ages and know how ERP can benefit anyone dealing with all OCD subtypes. I’ll be honest. I love ERP because of how well it works. Let’s start treatment and get you better.
Read moreI’ve been in the mental health space since 2009, and specialize in treating OCD. Before coming on board to NOCD, I primarily did in-home counseling and on-campus treatment where I worked with many disorders and mental health challenges such as OCD and ADHD trauma. During our time, I’ll be using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. I enjoy how ERP works on reducing negative behaviors while building up your confidence. Many members see results with ERP, I hope you do as well.
Read moreAs a therapist, I aim to be authentic and present for the people I'm working with. I'll listen to your story with empathy, understanding, validation, and consistency, working to create a safe space. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to bake. During the pandemic, I've become quite experienced.
Read moreAs a therapist, I work to create a space that is non-judgmental, open, warm, and compassionate. This is your space. You're in control of what you want to do or don't want to do. It's a place where you can feel comfortable. Outside of work, I'm a huge animal person, and I don't discriminate against what type of animal it is—dog, cat, fish, lizard or guinea pig. You're always welcome to show me your little fuzzy, scaly, or slimy friends.
Read moreIn 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. I enjoy cooking as a form of self-care and love all things spicy! I played collegiate softball at Saint Leo University, which is where I met my husband.
Read moreI recognize that not every person is the same; we all have unique situations and struggles that brought us to where we are today. I aim to empower people with the tools they need to move beyond the place where they're stuck. Outside of work, I love to read, garden, travel, and spend time with family. I love cats; I've been told I’m fast on my way to becoming 'that cat lady.'
Read moreI approach OCD treatment by helping my members learn to tolerate uncertainty in their lives. Learning to flow down the river of life can often be more fun than constantly fighting to swim upstream. Outside of therapy, my hobbies include teaching tennis, acting in community theater, spending time with my family, friends, and dog, and always enjoying a great meal.
