Are you struggling to break free from the chains of OCD and Anxiety? Do you wish to live a life without crippling fear and worry? I am here to help! I believe the only way "out" is through. Together we will work on your or your child's OCD and anxiety to get you to the life you deserve! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Pennsylvania. I specialize in OCD, Anxiety, Body-Focused Repetitive Behaviors, Phobias, and Hoarding disorders. I believe that while starting treatment can be scary, it is one of the best things you could ever do for yourself or your child. Asking for help is a strength! I strive to meet the person where they are and maintain a strength-based approach throughout the therapeutic relationship. One of the bravest and most important things you can do for yourself is learn your own power and the ability one has to break free of OCD and anxiety. I look forward to being a part of your journey and success.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we will get to know one another and dive into your experiences and struggles thus far. I will also take time to evaluate your needs so that we can agree on the best course of action moving forward. After all, this is your journey and I am here to support you on your way to reaching your goals!

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I also have experience working with adolescents and adults struggling with depression, ADHD, grief, eating disorders, trauma, and mood disorders. Anyone struggling with any of these issues is also welcome to seek therapeutic services with me!

My treatment methods

Acceptance and commitment (ACT)

ACT is a great compliment that I have been utilizing in treating many disorders including OCD and anxiety.

Exposure Response Prevention (ERP)

This is considered the Gold Star treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I began my training in ERP at the graduate level and find it to be extremely successful in treating those struggling with OCD and anxiety.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have been utilizing CBT for years and feel it is a great place to start for many issues like depression and anxiety.
