With my help, you’ll see that the hard work pays off and will completely change your life. I've been a licensed psychologist since 1999.

Licensed Therapist, LPC

I’ve been a practicing therapist for over 20 years, mostly in correctional facilities working with juveniles and adults. I’ve helped many people overcome adversity, and what I saw in clients with OCD is a lack of access to proper guidance. I want to make a difference in the lives of people with OCD by teaching them the skills they need to create positive change. That opportunity is available through Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, the gold standard treatment for OCD.

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.
