Alice Rizzi, PsyD

I offer individual therapy to ambitious professionals in New York & Florida via teletherapy. Approximately 70-80% of my clients have OCD while the remainder have other anxiety concerns in addition to childhood emotional neglect, ADHD, people-pleasing and perfectionism tendencies, overworking, and difficulty setting boundaries. They often struggle to prioritize themselves, which can lead to burnout and decreased life satisfaction. I use evidence-based treatment in combination with a holistic, mindful approach to help them feel free, joyful, and abundant in their lives. They learn to trust themselves and make values-aligned choices.

I treat many clients with OCD, generalized anxiety, panic, and ADHD. Some clients also have co-occurring hair pulling/skin-picking, body image and weight concerns, and/or substance use. Many of my clients have also experienced childhood emotional neglect/CPTSD. I use an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored for each client. If OCD is primary, we usually start with ERP, and integrate principles of ACT, CBT, and IFS as relevant.

I’ve been specializing in OCD since about 2019. I received training in ERP from a world-renowned OCD expert. I’ve been specializing in the treatment of anxiety disorders since 2012. My clients are driven professionals who are struggling to manage intrusive thoughts, mental rumination and worry, perfectionistic tendencies, reassurance seeking, and checking behaviors. The majority of my clients experience primarily mental compulsions, also sometimes referred to as “Pure-O.” They also experience a lot of self-doubt, difficulty managing uncertainty, and often question their relationships and identity. We focus on decreasing time spent engaging with compulsions and increasing values-based choices and activities.
