I use ERP, ACT, CBT, I-CBT and similar modalities to treat eating disorders, anxiety disorders, mood disorders. I also am trained in habit reversal therapy for Tics/Tourettes

I have been comprehensively trained in ERP through NOCD as a former contractor. I have specialized in OCD and related disorders for three years.

My practice is evidence-based while being trauma-informed, particularly in the complex trauma that comes from belonging to a marginalized background. I prioritize care in my practice for clients who belong to the BIPOC and LGBT+ communities.
