Great to meet you!

Feeling overwhelmed by obsessive fears or trapped by constant worry? You don’t have to face this alone. As a licensed psychotherapist specializing in OCD, anxiety, and PTSD, I will provide support to help you break the patterns that keep you stuck. Together, we can work toward real relief, healing, and a stronger sense of control in your daily life.

My approach to therapy

I’m dedicated to creating a supportive space where you feel heard and respected. Using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), I will help you develop tools to manage your fears. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you, so you can gain the skills and confidence to navigate challenges.

What you can expect from me

As we explore your concerns, I’ll provide psychoeducation to help you make sense of what’s happening. Together, we’ll create a practical plan to address your fears and reach your goals. I’ll keep you accountable and motivated, supporting the work you do in and outside of sessions. This space is comfortable and even a little humorous—because therapy can seem hard at times. But we’ll work through this together.
