There are times in life when we feel stuck, lonely, anxious, or disconnected from ourselves. While these experiences can be painful, I believe they often serve as powerful catalysts for growth, healing, and transformation. Earning your trust and helping you establish a secure, empowering baseline for your care is an honor I hold deeply. Over my five years of practice as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have found profound meaning in supporting adults and couples through their most difficult moments. I specialize in helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, eating disorders, OCD, and trauma. I am also fiercely committed to providing affirming care for the LGBTQIA+ community, offering a safe harbor for those seeking an inclusive, sex-positive space. It is a privilege to support people as they develop greater self-awareness, strengthen their resilience, and move toward a more authentic version of themselves.

Hello I am Jenn, I have a graduate degree from The College of St Rose in Albany, and NYS licensed Master CASAC. I am most proud of the well seasoned life experience that comes with being a Gen X.

Clients can expect authenticity, an open mind, and an understanding space to explore traumatic and challenging belief systems (that no longer work), emotional dysregulation, coping skills, communication skills (boundary setting, healthy communication, self care), and future focused guidance and support.

Clients will improve social, relational and professional interactions. Clients are free to express themselves mindfully and reflect intentionally about challenging behavior and racing thoughts. I will always provide compassionate non-judgmental, and ethical care.

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 an OCD Therapist in Syracuse, NY

Finding OCD therapists in Syracuse starts with looking for the right training, not just a general therapy match. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve intrusive thoughts, checking, contamination concerns, reassurance seeking, or repeated routines. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is an evidence-based therapy for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you review therapist profiles, look for OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy in their listed specialties and approach.

Syracuse is a smaller mental health care market, so local in-person options for specialized OCD care may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual appointments can expand your search while still letting you stay within New York. When comparing therapists, look beyond whether they mention OCD. A therapist who lists specific ERP training may offer a different level of specialty experience than one who lists OCD as one of many concerns they see. Review bios for details on approach, appointment availability, free phone consultations, and whether the therapist is accepting new clients.

Therapy in Syracuse can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for therapists who fit your needs, accept a wide range of insurance plans, and offer upfront cost estimates before you book. You can compare OCD therapists in Syracuse, read profiles, and book directly when you find a therapist who matches your preferences.
