Erika L. Poladian LMFT

I am a psychotherapist in private practice. I provide in-person and virtual sessions. I also offer home visits for ERP depending on client geographic location. I have treated many individuals with OCD and related disorders using a combination of ERP, ACT, and CBT. Over half of my practice consists of individuals of all ages diagnosed with OCD.

I completed an 18-month clinical externship at the UCLA Adult OCD Intensive Outpatient Program. While at UCLA, I worked under the supervision of senior clinicians with expertise in OCD/OC related disorders treating patients using ERP. I also trained in the private practice of one of UCLA’s senior OCD clinicians for three years where I acquired additional clinical experience with OCD. Furthermore, I worked as a program therapist in a residential eating disorder treatment center for two years where many patients had co-occuring OCD/OC related disorders. I utilized CBT, ACT, and ERP to address both eating disorder and OCD symptoms.

My practice consists of clients from all different cultures. I welcome individuals from all different backgrounds and I truly value learning about my clients’ backgrounds in order to foster solid rapport and provide high quality care.
