Exposure therapy is a therapeutic technique that was created to help people face their fears. When you are scared of something, you tend to avoid it. Although this avoidance might help reduce feelings of fear in the short-term, over time the fear can grow and worsen. Exposure therapy involves exposing the client to the source of the fear (or its context) in a safe environment without the intention to cause any danger. The exposure to the feared situation, object, or activity helps to reduce fear and decrease avoidance. Exposure therapy can be helpful in the treatment of a number of issues, including PTSD, anxiety, OCD, and panic attacks. Think this approach might be right for you?

Take a quick survey to find therapists that match your needs.
Have you been experiencing anxiety, phase of life difficulties, or have symptoms related to OCD? It can be really hard when you feel stuck in your worries or taken over by obsessive thoughts and compulsions. I would like to see you be able to move forward again and I would love to help you on your path to doing so. Exposure and response prevention and inference-based cognitive behavioral therapy are both evidence-based approaches that I offer to help you meet your personal goals.

Being human is often tough. Sometimes we lose our way and can feel stuck and overwhelmed. Sometimes we would like to change parts of our lives or ourselves but don’t know how. Therapy can be an empowering way to promote healing, growth, and wellness. Often, we initially seek treatment to address a specific concern and then begin to uncover other areas of our lives in which we want to make meaningful change. My goal is for this process to feel supportive, affirming, and appropriately challenging.
