Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

With a deep understanding of the underlying mechanisms of OCD, I guide individuals through a structured and evidence-based approach to confronting their fears and breaking free from the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Through systematic exposure to anxiety-provoking stimuli and prevention of ritualistic behaviors, I help clients gradually build tolerance to their distress and learn more adaptive ways of coping.

I am experienced in providing Rumination-Focused Exposure and Response Prevention, a practical and achievable pathway to healing from OCD. I offer a specialized treatment program and rate for these services.

I aim to help clients with OCD understand their experiences, develop effective coping strategies, and work towards managing their symptoms in a meaningful way.

I know how hard OCD can be when it feels like you're caught in a cycle of anxiety and behaviors that just won’t let go. I’m here to help you work through that without adding to your worries. Together, we'll focus on easing the anxiety and gradually reducing the behaviors that are getting in your way, so you can start feeling more in control.

In working with OCD, I do a deep assessment related to the onset of your obsessive rumination and compulsive behaviors or mental rituals to break the cycle of feeling like you are on a constant hamster wheel you can't exit. I utilize a blend of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Exposure Response Prevention collaborating with you to treat your OCD. You will likely be working on constructing a hierarchy of feared events so we can develop exposure activities to help you overcome your anxiety.

I am a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP). I use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) to support you in finding strength in recovery from negative anxiety.

I am trained and have experience in Exposure and Response Prevention, the gold standard for OCD treatment. With my help, we'll stop you from doing compulsions (including mental compulsions which may be present in "pure O" OCD) that reinforce your OCD. I will also help you identify the beliefs behind your obsessions.

ERP therapy (Exposure Response Prevention therapy) helps to alleviate the obsessive and compulsive thinking patterns and behaviors that can feel paralyzing. We together will find the right approach for you. ERP therapy helps to reduce these symptoms through exploring core fears and participating in exposures to increase the ability to tolerate the anxiety.

I have significant experience working with clients to develop gradual exposure and response prevention plans to decrease the interference of OCD in their everyday lives.

I have intensive training from the International OCD Foundation’s Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI) in Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) which is the gold standard in support with OCD and some anxiety experiences as well as training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy exposure based work for anxiety and OCD.

I have both professional training and clinical hands-on experience in working with many types of obsessive compulsive disorder. I have utilized cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), exposure and response prevention treatment (ERP) and other interventions to help many of my clients improve their ability to handle OCD symptoms.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP or ERP). This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for OCD available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create obsessive thinking and emotional distress and how to simultaneously resist acting on urges to engage in your compulsive behavior. Clients are often amazed at the results.

If you're someone struggling with, suspecting of, or supporting someone you love living with OCD, I encourage you to reach out! My experience working with individuals afflicted with this condition draws from a multi-theoretical approach grounded in cognitive-behavioral theory, psychodynamic, and dialectical-therapy skills-based approaches in an effort to better understand and cope with individually-determined symptoms as a reflection of your life experience.

I am trained in exposure response prevention (ERP) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) for OCD and have extensive experience combining principles from both to support clients in overcoming many subtypes of OCD and related conditions.

OCD is so difficult to deal with, especially because people often think of it as just being neat or tidy. But it's so hard when these anxiety thoughts become something that we feel like we can't get away from, and the only way we've learned we can deal with it is with some kind of compulsive action in the world. It may be hard to find proper care, but it is possible. I've been trained in CBT and ERP, to help you learn that you can sit with these feelings, without your compulsions.

I have taken several courses on Exposure Therapy techniques to work through symptoms of OCD. OCD is something I enjoy working with and I have had many clients have positive outcomes using this technique.
