Starting therapy can feel overwhelming. I am a therapist who will listen to what you need and assist you with achieving your personal goals. During the therapeutic process you will be able to understand more about yourself, as well as what role your environment plays in your life. I work from a trauma informed perspective and will be supportive in exploring how past challenges are currently affecting your life. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) within my therapeutic approach, specifically Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) which will allow you to learn more about using mindfulness in your life, and in your personal journey through therapy. I have experience working with adults who have Anxiety, Depression, and Bipolar Disorder with a variety of stressors. I look forward to connecting and being able to support you.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Buffalo, NY
Finding OCD therapists in Buffalo starts with looking for a therapist who has specific experience with obsessive-compulsive disorder and related concerns, such as intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, checking, contamination fears, and reassurance seeking. Exposure and response prevention, also called ERP, is a well-established therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you review therapist profiles, look for clear references to OCD, ERP, exposure and response prevention, cognitive behavioral therapy, and experience supporting people with the concerns you want to address.
Buffalo has a strong mental health care community, though the right OCD fit may depend on both specialty training and practical access. Some people prefer in-person OCD therapy near them, while others use virtual sessions to consider more therapists across the Buffalo area and nearby communities. When comparing options, look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD as a specialty. Check whether they mention ERP training, current appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and how they describe their session structure or communication style.
Therapy in Buffalo can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for.
