Kellie Kintz

Director of Therapist Culture and Qualified Supervisor for Registered Clinical Social Work Interns (RCSWI)- Florida

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. I have worked in large teaching hospitals, inpatient and residential psychiatric units, IOPs, PHPs, OPs, private practices and hospices. At NOCD, our mission is to restore hope for people with OCD through better awareness and treatment. Our focus as a speciality-provider is on the NOCD 5 Diagnoses: OCD, Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors and Tics, Hoarding, Co-morbid to OCD Anxiety & Related Disorders. I am proficient in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, considered the gold standard treatment for OCD. ERP requires you to face your fears. As your therapist, I know how to guide you so that you can walk through that fear and reach the reward that awaits you.

Justin Trout

Licensed Therapist, LPC

Starting when I was young, through some personal experiences, I have felt called to help people. I love seeing people overcome hills and valleys and by the end of therapy be able to say, "I feel better."

Jason Gibbs

Licensed Therapist, Ph.D.

I've had several subtypes of OCD since I was very young. I've done ERP myself, so I know how effective it is. I also know it takes a lot of courage just to get here. As a therapist, I create a welcoming, warm environment. I'll ask what you want to get out of therapy and craft a treatment plan based on that, realizing other concerns can arise on a week-to-week basis. Beyond OCD, I have extensive experience treating anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and other conditions closely related to OCD.

Kelsey Hernandez

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I'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.

Sarah Uberti

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I know how pervasive anxiety is and the toll it can take on your life. I'm passionate about offering people with OCD the support they need. As a therapist, I always come from a place of non-judgment and empathy. I try to fully understand the person I'm working with. Education is important. When you understand what you're experiencing, you can tackle it better. You won't need therapy forever — ultimately, you'll be able to manage OCD on your own. My other areas of focus include anxiety, depression, trauma, and other obsessive compulsive disorders.

Samantha Smith

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

I treat OCD with empathy and sensitivity, mixed with directness. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family at the beach or at a BBQ.

Nikki Dahl

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I have a pretty flexible approach to therapy. (There will be a steady flow of smiley faces in your messaging inbox that you are not obligated to respond to.) My focus allows a completely unique experience for every member. I tend to get along well with members who are very particular about details, because I care about the mapping of your OCD being accurate to your experience. The only thing more important is that you feel like you have agency throughout the entire therapy process. Outside of work, I enjoy nail art, live music, learning new things, and a totally normal and appropriate amount of video gaming.

Mena Soliman

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

I'm a direct and collaborative therapist. I will not force you to do anything you are uncomfortable with, but I will push you when necessary. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, watching mindless shows together. I also enjoy dancing, singing and reading. When the weather permits, I like to go hiking and biking.

Paula Fistein

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

My approach to treating OCD involves learning how OCD presents in a person's life, then building a treatment plan together—one that feels comfortable but is also challenging and can produce successful outcomes. During therapy, I'm non-judgmental and open to questions. I know this can be a scary process. I want members to feel safe and comfortable enough to share and express themselves. When I'm not doing therapy, I read everything from psychology to romance novels. On the weekends, I enjoy riding my motorcycle with my husband and friends, and I love to go hiking and take pictures of nature along the way.

Nicole Connolly

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

During therapy with me, you are in the driver's seat. You decide what activities we do and the pace of our work. I facilitate the overall experience: the structure of treatment, how sessions are organized, and assign the daily homework. Outside of work, I enjoy nature, reading, and making tea.

Brooke Tominey

Licensed Therapist, MA

My approach to treating OCD is a combination of ERP (exposure and response prevention), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), and ongoing symptom assessment. It's important to me to make sure you feel safe to gradually expose yourself to those triggering situations/environments to achieve the best results and learn to cope accordingly. Outside of work, I enjoy going to the beach, reading, watching YouTube and football, being around my friends and family, and watching the sunset all as a means of self-care so I am able to recharge!

Deirdre James

Licensed Therapist, MS

I became a therapist to help people pursue values-based lives they enjoy. My goal is to support individuals through their struggles, and I find that Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) offers an exceptionally effective method of assistance. I also incorporate techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you identify your values, accept challenges, and live a values-based life. My focus on anxiety and depression enables me to effectively treat individuals holistically. I’m here to support you throughout this journey, and this is a judgment-free zone.

Regina Thomas

Licensed Therapist, MS

I'm an experienced therapist who specializes in treating OCD, depression, anxiety, trauma, and grief. As your OCD therapist, I'll teach you how to regain control over repetitive behaviors by utilizing Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) techniques. I enjoy helping people overcome roadblocks that prevent them from moving forward. Together, we'll find ways to eliminate those obstacles and pursue what gives your life meaning. Help is available, and change is inevitable with focus and intention to move forward.

Russell MacKay

Licensed Therapist, MC

I want to make a difference in how OCD is diagnosed and treated. NOCD Therapy works! Even if you've found frustration in treatment before, NOCD focuses on you—on really helping you find relief. As your OCD therapist, I'll help you recognize and begin to face your rituals, work through them, and find peace on the other side. I'll encourage you and be present as you face hard moments. I also specialize in treating trauma, anxiety, and depression.

Christina Hauritz

Licensed Therapist, LCMHC

As a therapist, my approach to treating OCD is rooted in empathy and evidence-based interventions. I strive to create a safe, supportive environment where you'll feel heard, understood, and empowered to confront your OCD symptoms and work toward recovery. Therapy is a collaborative process. Your comfort and well-being are my top priorities. As a seasoned mental health professional, I have a diverse range of expertise, enabling me to provide comprehensive support.
