I became a therapist through my own journey of navigating life’s challenges, which ignited a passion for helping others heal and grow. My approach to OCD treatment is collaborative, compassionate, and non-judgmental. In our sessions, I aim to create a supportive environment where you'll feel understood, empowered to overcome your struggles, and achieve lasting change for a better quality of life. Change is possible, and we will celebrate each step forward together. I also work with individuals dealing with anxiety disorders, intrusive thoughts, perfectionism, and depression, which often overlap OCD.
