Welcome! I provide individual therapy for college/ graduate students, professionals, and adults navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, crises of meaning, and the deeper questions that arise in times of uncertainty. Many of my clients come in feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected- from themselves, others, or a clear sense of purpose. Our work together explores not just symptom relief, but what it means to live more fully and authentically. Together, we reconnect with your values, develop practical skills for navigating life's challenges, and explore the deeper patterns and past experiences that may be shaping your present.

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


Life is full of ups and downs, and I have learned from both personal and professional experience that 'suffering in silence' is not really sustainable or healthy for anyone. You deserve to feel heard and to function at your best level. I have 6 years' experience post-graduation from the University of Texas with helping folks do just that. From nonprofits, to medical clinics, to correctional facilities, to teletherapy, I have connected deeply and partnered with many clients and families to trudge through some of their darkest hours and find more validation, calmness, and acceptance. My fluency in Spanish has given me opportunities to break down walls and connect with hundreds of clients whose cultural background is different than mine. I would be honored to have the chance to see if working together is a good fit for your healing journey.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Arlington

Finding the right OCD therapist in Arlington, MA starts with understanding the type of care that fits your situation. Many providers on Headway offer structured therapeutic approaches for obsessive-compulsive disorder, including ERP and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and a qualified clinician can help determine what may be appropriate for your needs. If medication management is part of your care plan, psychiatrists on Headway can help with that too. Consider whether you prefer in-person sessions in Arlington or virtual appointments — many providers offer both.

OCD care in the Arlington area can be costly without insurance, but affordable options exist when you use in-network coverage. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a provider who specializes in OCD and accepts your coverage.

Once you've identified a few providers, read through their bios to learn about their approach, experience with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and what to expect in sessions. Many providers on Headway offer a free phone consultation so you can see if it's a good fit before committing to care.
