She/Her
Licensed Therapist, MSW, LCSW
About
My approach to treating OCD is compassionate and direct, with a touch of levity. OCD is exhausting and debilitating — you're constantly seeking reassurance and engaging in compulsions, but it's never enough. This can feel overwhelming and embarrassing. Through Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), we slow things down, teaching you how to tolerate discomfort and uncertainty. That puts you in the driver's seat, empowering you to live in accordance with your values. I have experience working with depression, substance use, and trauma, which enables me to offer an integrative treatment for OCD and anxiety.
