If you’re here, you’re looking for a specialist who truly gets it – not another general talk therapist, and this shows your underlying motivation for doing the hard work toward change! As a therapist for over 20 years, I specialize in helping adults affected by OCD, anxiety/panic, specific phobias, Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), and Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors such as hair pulling and skin picking. I use evidence-based therapies such as Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD, HRT/ComB for Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors, and Perceptual Retraining with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for BDD. I’m a licensed clinical social worker in both Maryland and Delaware and provide virtual therapy for adults residing throughout these two states. My style as a therapist is colloborative, compassionate, down-to-earth, and focused on helping you get relief and live more fully!
I received a Master of Social Work degree from Delaware State University in 2005. I trained in OCD and ERP therapy with NOCD, Cognitive Behavior Institute, and NICABM while always continuing to advance my training to benefit the clients I help. I also have lived experience as a parent of a child with OCD and the success of ERP therapy.
