Narrative of Services:
Approximately 60% of my practice focuses on OCD and related conditions, and I have been treating OCD for five years, integrating evidence-based ERP with approaches like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR to tailor therapy to each client’s needs.
Training Description:
I have been treating OCD and related disorders for five years, beginning with hands-on, supervised experience at an OCD and anxiety specialty clinic during my associateship. I have completed multiple evidence-based ERP trainings through NOCD and continue to enhance my skills through ERP-specific consultation meetings. My approach integrates Exposure and Response Prevention with modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR, allowing me to tailor treatment to each client’s unique needs while maintaining fidelity to established OCD treatment protocols.
Diversity Statement:
I have experience working with clients of diverse ages, gender identities, sexual orientations, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, and religious affiliations. Professionally, I have worked in community mental health settings serving primarily under-resourced and historically marginalized populations. These experiences shape my culturally responsive approach, allowing me to provide therapy that is respectful, affirming, and tailored to each client’s unique context.
I have developed cultural competency through extensive clinical experience working with clients of diverse ages, gender identities, sexual orientations, ethnicities, cultural backgrounds, and religious affiliations. Much of this experience comes from my work in community mental health settings serving primarily under-resourced and historically marginalized populations. Additionally, I have participated in trainings and workshops focused on culturally responsive care, which, alongside ongoing supervision and consultation, continue to inform my approach. These experiences help me provide therapy that is affirming, respectful, and tailored to each client’s unique cultural and identity-related context.
