Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is an evidence-based modality for treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). In ERP, clients work with a trained therapist to learn how to gradually expose themselves to thoughts, images and situations that provoke anxiety without engaging in compulsions to soothe the anxiety. This gradual exposure leads to the reduction of anxiety over time, "retraining" your brain to no longer see these things as a threat.

Welcome! I specialize and have years of experience treating all themes of OCD and anxiety (panic attacks, health anxiety, driving anxiety, phobia's,) as well as other OC spectrum disorders such as body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), and body-focused-repetitive-behaviors (BFRB's) like skin picking and hair pulling. I would be honored to hear your story, and give you skills to help you move forward wherever you are in life.

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.
