Hoarding Therapy
Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
I see several hoarders in therapy (and sometimes supportive family members) and help hoarders organize their lives so that they are able to deal with the clutter that holds them back from leading a functional existence. The pandemic has afforded more time to devote to projects, which were
Avoided in the past. Some attend my regular free Zoom seminars and find them helpful. Please feel free to call me for a consultation: 301-229-8000

Hypnotherapist, Hypnotherapist certified by International Medical and Dental Hypnotherapy Association
I have worked successfully with several hoarders. All of them were trying to resolve issues that couldn't be resolved, attempted solutions to problems and situations that ceased to exist long ago - but the unconscious part that wants to hoard does not realize that and the thinking and behavior continue. I work with that "part" of you - we find out what it REALLY wants and give it, and you, THAT.

Hoarding disorder therapy focuses on addressing the complexities of hoarding behavior, characterized by the excessive accumulation of items and the inability to discard them, leading to cluttered and unmanageable living spaces. This condition often has profound emotional, physical, and social repercussions. Our compassionate approach aims to understand the underlying causes of hoarding, alleviate its impact, and support individuals in reclaiming their environment and life.
Compassionate Approach to Understanding and Treating Hoarding Disorder
* Individualized Assessment: We start with a comprehensive evaluation to understand the extent of the hoarding behavior and its impact on the individual's life.
* Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Our therapeutic strategy often includes CBT to address the thought patterns and beliefs that fuel hoarding behavior, facilitating cognitive restructuring and behavior modification.
* Emotional Support and Processing: We provide a safe space for individuals to express and process complex emotions associated with hoarding, such as shame, anxiety, or grief.
* Skills Training: Clients are equipped with organizational and decision-making skills to help manage clutter, with a focus on gradual, sustainable change.
* Collaborative Clean-up Efforts: When appropriate, we support coordinated clean-up efforts, ensuring they're conducted in a sensitive and nonjudgmental manner, respecting the individual’s pace and emotional readiness.
Goals of Hoarding Disorder Therapy
Our therapy services for hoarding disorder aim to:
* Enhance Insight and Motivation: Increase the individual’s insight into their hoarding behavior and motivate them towards change.
* Alleviate Emotional Distress: Address the underlying emotional issues linked to hoarding, such as depression, anxiety, or trauma.

* Build Healthier Coping Strategies: Develop effective coping mechanisms for stress and emotional distress that do not involve hoarding.
