Schedule a brief consultation phone call before we schedule a session to ensure we are a good fit.

Hello, I'm Theresa and I specialize in the treatment of anxiety disorders including OCD, panic disorder, health anxiety and generalized anxiety disorder.

Clients come to me looking for a therapist who is compassionate, authentic, and trained in proven methods that treat anxiety.

My goal is to help you feel hopeful again and to gain momentum to change. My approach uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP) both of which are considered the gold standard in treating anxiety. I combine this with mindfulness which can improve the ability to manage emotions and also help to decrease symptoms of anxiety.

Sessions with me are practical and focused on learning new tangible skills. Therapy is an active process and it's important that you be able to practice new skills outside of the session. We always go at your pace, never pushing to a place you don’t feel ready to go.
