I’m a formerly harsh self-critic and PhD psychologist with 30+ years of experience. I blend Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindful Self-Compassion. If you struggle with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem or relationship problems, I’m here to help.
Through therapy, you'll learn to stop judging yourself so harshly, let go of guilt, shame and blame, and treat yourself with the same kindness you show others. I help you believe in yourself and take action, even when you’re feeling anxious.
I believe prioritizing mental health is key to stability in life. I know there is a better world out there and people need the tools to connect with their upmost insight for mental well being. In this field I am always eager to research and find healing processes to tailor the need of each individual.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth. I'm an LCSW with 10+ years of experience helping clients work towards their life goals.
Life today can be very stressful. We play many roles and we are constantly bombarded with information. We have many responsibilities and too little time. Sometimes it's hard to talk to your friends because they're going through the same thing and you don't want to burden them.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Brooklyn
Finding the right OCD therapist in Brooklyn starts with understanding what kind of care works best for you. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is often addressed with structured therapeutic approaches, and a qualified mental health professional can help you understand which options may be appropriate for you. Some people also work with a psychiatrist for medication management alongside therapy. When browsing providers, look for a licensed therapist or psychiatrist who lists OCD as a specialty — not just a general area of practice — and read their bio to understand their approach and training.
Brooklyn is home to a wide range of mental health providers, but narrowing your search can take time. Consider what matters most to you beyond specialty: whether you prefer virtual or in-person sessions, a provider who shares your cultural background, or someone available on evenings or weekends. A free phone consultation can help you gauge whether a provider's style feels like the right match before you commit to a full session.
Therapy in New York City can be expensive, but using your in-network insurance benefits is one of the most reliable ways to bring costs down. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. That makes it easier to find an OCD specialist in Brooklyn who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.
