I specialize in helping individuals who are experiencing symptoms of OCD, including Pure-O versions of OCD. “Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder can be characterized by primarily obsessions, primarily compulsions, or a combination of both. Obsessions are defined as recurrent and persistent thoughts, impulses, or images that are experienced as intrusive and cause anxiety or distress. Compulsions are defined as repetitive behaviors or mental acts that the person feels driven to perform in response to an obsession or according to rules that must be applied rigidly.” DSM-5

Many individuals experiencing OCD feel shame about their thoughts or experience; I provide a safe space where OCD is understood. Besides going through my own personal experience with OCD and exposure therapy, I also have completed specialized trainings in the treatment of OCD and exposure therapy (ERP).
OCD has many variations, and each person's experience with it is somewhat unique to them, but I believe that there is a path to recovery for each person! I work with OCD clients to understand their experience of OCD and help them on their path to recovery.
