Reed Farrer LMFT
My practice is primarily focused on treating OCD and anxiety disorders (i.e. social anxiety, panic, generalized anxiety). I use a combination of ACT, ERP, and mindfulness. My goal in treatment is to help clients learn to relate more skillfully to anxious symptoms.
I treat co-occurring disorders including depression, substance use disorder, and trauma. I use a combination of ACT, mindfulness, and TRM (Trauma Resiliency Model).
I was trained to treat OCD and anxiety disorders using CBT and ERP at Anxiety Therapy LA. I have also received training in ACT, DBT, and mindfulness. I am a certified mindfulness teacher through The Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program.
My first training site was a middle and high school in Los Angeles County. The school comprised a diverse population of students and families which deepened my understanding of how to work with and meet the needs of people from varying backgrounds, ethnicities, social classes, and identities.
