About

Treating OCD and related conditions is my passion. The reward of guiding those with OCD is a great feeling that comes along with helping members make a great improvement in the quality of their lives. In my experience with ERP, I have seen how it reliably produces good results. It's important to me that I hear your story and learn from you about how we can collaborate to make the changes you’re wanting to see. You’ll find me genuinely authentic, with an approach that blends empathy with firm guidance. I want to be able to look at you honestly and explain what we’ll need to accomplish in order to maximize success. We’ll collaborate from session to session and put you on the path to leaving your OCD challenges behind you.

Nick was very helpful and listening to my specific concerns and questions regarding the video I watched and regarding my interpretation of the video and his treatment of obsessions and compulsions. He also offered a structure on how to progress and made a lot of sense to me and included me in the process of deciding if the structure would work. I am very grateful for his approach and his help.
