Narrative of Services:

MMy practice is approximately 50% OCD and OCD Spectrum/Related Disorders. I offer Exposure and Response Prevention but also Cognitive Therapy and other approaches, depending upon what an individual client is most comfortable with and what is most effective for the individual client’s situation.

I treat co-occurring disorders that include various combinations of OCD, Hoarding Disorder, Trauma (PTSD), Anxiety Disorders, Major Depression, Bipolar Disorders, and stress related to relationships, work, etc. I integrate varied treatment approaches, depending on what is most effective for the individual’s particular presenting concerns. Family therapy is limited to working with loved ones on ending accommodation.

I am comfortable with and have experience with clients of varied races, nationalities, gender expression, sexual orientations, religious backgrounds, etc. For instance, I have worked well with Buddhists, Muslims, both Progressive and Conservative Christians, Pagans, Wiccans, atheists, and agnostics. I am glad to integrate any individual’s spirituality or philosophy into their treatment. I also have experience working effectively with heterosexuals, lesbians, gay men, transgender individuals, non-binary, and family members or loved ones of all those “categories.”
