Feeling trapped by anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or procrastination? I help you gain calm and control with practical, evidence-based CBT and ERP -informed tools. I help adults with anxiety and OCD intrusive thoughts, reduce chronic overthinking, and feel steady again in their daily life and relationships. My approach integrates ERP and CBT for practical symptom relief with deeper attachment and parts-based work to address long-standing relational patterns, self-criticism, and codependency. Therapy with me is structured, collaborative, and paced to your individual path.

Many functioning adults struggle with anxiety, OCD, or procrastination that persists even when they understand what’s happening.

These patterns aren’t a lack of willpower —

They may be learned responses that can be changed with the right support and tools.

Together, we create tailored plan for transcending patterns that have kept you stuck.

You’ll leave sessions with language for your patterns, tools that work in real time, and a quiet confidence you didn’t think was possible.

I specialize in:

  • OCD and intrusive thought spirals
  • Anxiety that shows up as overthinking, perfectionism, or constant second-guessing, emotional eating
  • Codependent relationship dynamics
  • Navigating old-school family dynamics without shrinking yourself

People tell me they value my sincerity, warmth, and ability to make them feel truly seen — while also being gently challenged to grow.

If you’re ready to stop spinning and start shifting, schedule a session with me today.

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 Charlotte

Finding the right OCD therapist in Charlotte starts with understanding what kind of care you need. Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves a cycle of intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions), and treatment approaches often include specialized talk therapy; a qualified mental health professional can help determine what may be appropriate for you. Not every therapist has training in ERP, so looking for a provider who lists OCD as a primary specialty — rather than one of many — can make a meaningful difference.

Charlotte has a range of mental health providers across neighborhoods like SouthPark, Ballantyne, University City, and NoDa, including therapists, psychologists, and psychiatrists. If you're unsure where to start, a qualified healthcare professional can assess your symptoms, discuss treatment options, and help you decide on a care plan. Some people benefit from working with both. Reading a provider's bio before booking can help you understand their approach, training, and whether they're a good match for your specific concerns.

OCD therapy in Charlotte can be expensive without coverage, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to lower your costs. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many people 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.
