Emily H. Newberry, LMHC

I offer I-CBT, ERP, and hypnotherapy for my OCD clients. My practice consists of approximately 90% of OCD and OC Related Disorders. I require family therapy for children and adolescents with OCD and recommend it for individual adult clients. I prefer in office sessions but SPACE groups are virtual and telehealth is always an option if preferred. My primary office is in Orlando, FL but I am also in my Macon, GA office one week out of each month.

I treat co-occurring disorders when OCD is primary. I specialize in anxiety but also have ample experience with substance use disorders and Autism. Treatment will be adjusted to address the complications of occurring issues.

I have been treating anxiety disorders and OCD for 20 years. I was the anxiety specialist in an outpatient program in a local behavioral health hospital for 15 years and I have been specializing in anxiety and OCD in my private practice since 2018. I am a certified hypnotherapist and have found that ERP through hypnotherapy helps for all clients, but especially those who are resistant due to their fear of the exposures. I have been offering I-CBT for my clients for five years, as I find that many of the concepts work well for long-term recovery.

I am very open to working with diverse populations. I worked in child welfare for 8 years prior to working at a behavioral health hospital for 15 years. The clients/patients I worked with varied in all ages, races, religions, ethnicities, and sexualities. I have attended multiple cultural competency courses over the years and am comfortable meeting people where they are. If I do not understand a cultural issue, I tend to ask questions for better clarification and understanding.

I offer an online OCD group monthly for adults. I offer an in person anxiety group monthly at my GA office. These groups are only offered for my active clients. I offer online SPACE treatment for parents of anxious children/teens (individual and group options).
