Austin Daron
Licensed Therapist, MA, LPC
About
I focus on OCD, neurodiversity-affirming and LGBTQIA+-affirming therapy. My partner, family, and many friends are neurodiverse and LGBTQIA+, so I'm passionate about helping others who are marginalized and need a therapist who's up-to-date and understanding. In therapy, we'll gradually face your fears together, taking it step by step. This might feel tough at first, but the anxiety will ease over time. You won't have to do this alone — we'll work together, and I'm here to support you. Progress isn't always smooth, but every step counts. You've got this!

I have had an amazing experience with NOCD. I have changed for the better since starting with my therapist, Austin Daron, earlier this year. He taught me so much about myself and showed me how much my OCD was affecting my life when I couldn’t see that for myself. Our sessions and my work with ERP helped me learn what OCD is at its core, identify my compulsions, how to prevent them, and ultimately how to expose my self and tackle my obsessions that controlled my life. Even after a few short months of ERP my life has changed drastically. I am very proud of myself and very thankful to NOCD and my therapist Austin Daron. I would highly recommend the program to anyone who struggles with OCD!

I have used two other therapists here and Austin is awesome. He kept digging into my ocd on our first session. I can tell I will definitely tackle this OCD with his help and I recommend him to anyone
