Annabella Z. Hagen, LCSW

95% of my private practice (Mindset Family Therapy) focuses on treating clients with OCD and OC related disorders. 100% of clients I personally have treated for the past 8 years struggle with various OCD themes, mainly scrupulosity, sexual and harm OCD. I and my staff have trained in the following evidence-based treatment modalities: exposure and response prevention (ERP), ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) and I-CBT (inference-cognitive behavior therapy). We are a small clinic dedicated to meet our clients’ needs and develop a personalized treatment plan that will allow them to get back to living a values-centered life.

I have been treating anxiety disorders and OCD since 2000. I am a graduate of the International OCD Foundation’s BTTI (2012). I have been trained by and consulted with nationally renowned OCD experts including current members of the IOCDF Scientific Advisory Board. My staff and I have attended the IOCDF Conferences annually since 2012. We have led groups and presented workshops for children and adults at the annual IOCD Conference since 2014. We stay up to date on the latest research regarding OCD treatment. We are passionate about implementing evidence-based treatment modalities such as ERP, ACT and I-CBT.

We welcome multicultural populations from all demographic backgrounds. We’ve had the opportunity to work with clients from around the world including the United Kingdom, Japan, Taiwan, Africa, Dubai, and Latin American countries.

I am originally from Guatemala and understand the Latin American culture. One of our clinicians also practices therapy in Spanish.

My staff at Mindset Family Therapy is competent in providing clinical services to clients from a variety of cultural backgrounds and diverse populations including the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
