At my practice, I work alongside two PSYPACT-licensed psychologists and a Mental Health Counselor in training. Together, we share a deep passion for helping clients overcome OCD, anxiety, and trauma. All therapists in the practice are trained in the same evidence-based approaches, such as ERP, ACT, and trauma-focused care, and we offer a warm, supportive, and collaborative style of therapy. We also focus on building a safe, inclusive space where individuals from diverse backgrounds, including the LGBTQ+ community, can feel seen, heard, and supported.
When you schedule a free 15-minute consultation with me, I’ll work to match you with the therapist within our practice who best aligns with your unique needs. We aim to ensure you feel supported, understood and empowered every step of the way.
