Michelle Gomez-Salazar, LCSW

I’m an OCD therapist providing telehealth services to adults throughout California and New York. About 85% of my caseload is coping with OCD or anxiety-related symptoms. I utilize Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT) for OCD treatment.

I have worked with clients experiencing a wide range of mental health issues for the last 10+ years. My focus since 2022 has been treating individuals with OCD. I have completed post-graduate training in the diagnosis and treatment of OCD through Cognitive Behavioral Institute (CBI), Massachusetts General Hospital, and NOCD’s provider training. I am also a graduate of the IOCDF’s Virtual BTTI in Spanish. I value ongoing learning and frequently attend clinical consultation with expert clinicians, as well as continued education to support my growth as a clinician.

As a therapist licensed in two of the most populated and diverse states, I have worked with individuals of different backgrounds, including marginalized communities. I am also a Latina with lived and professional experience working with BIPOC folks and Spanish-speaking individuals. I have worked serving the LGBTQ+ communities and those who are neurodiverse. I continue to seek opportunities to grow and provide affirming care to my clients. Whether that’s via continued education trainings, my own research/reading, or learning from those with lived experience.
