I specialize in helping individuals navigate complex trauma/CPTSD, social anxiety, relationship dynamics, and workplace stress. I work with both teens and adults to address anxiety, depression, perfectionism, work-life balance, and healing from childhood trauma or complex family dynamics. Therapy can help with overcoming fears in social situations, boosting motivation, reducing excessive guilt, and managing stress related to academics or work as well as address issues such as fears of abandonment, putting others' needs before their own, setting healthy boundaries, achieving personal goals, and processing past trauma.
Our practice has openings for in person and virtual appointments. We believe therapy can help alleviate distress in times of crisis, but is also important as a regular part of wellness. We accept several insurance plans via Headway as well as offer low cost self-pay options.

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.
Finding OCD therapists in Pasadena starts with looking for the right training, not just a general specialty label. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you’re seeking support for intrusive thoughts, compulsions, obsessions, avoidance, or related anxiety, review therapist bios for direct experience with OCD and ERP. An obsession therapist or OCD-focused therapist may also list approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or anxiety-focused care.
Pasadena is a smaller local market, so your best fit may be nearby, virtual, or a mix of both. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond therapists with offices close to home, while in-person care may fit better if you prefer a set location for sessions. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their work with OCD. A bio that names ERP training or structured OCD care gives you more useful information than one that only lists OCD as an area of familiarity.
Therapy in Pasadena can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, check whether they accept your plan, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From there, you can choose a therapist who matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
