OCD Therapists in San José, Costa Rica

Are you obsessing inside and performing internal (thought) or behavioral compulsions to try to manage your anxiety? Is it getting worse? Is it interrupting your life and frustrating the people who care about you? You can improve with help. I am trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, which is an evidence-based OCD treatment and is tailored to be challenging but not overwhelming. We set small, achievable goals each session. I do a lot of this work and get very good results. Be prepared for practice in between sessions as part of ERP so you can live more fully in the ways you want.

San José is Costa Rica's capital and the urban center of one of Central America's most stable and educated nations, with a mental health landscape shaped by the city's large expat retirement community, growing ecotourism workforce, and a professional class with relatively high awareness of psychological well-being. English-language therapy is accessible, with a number of bilingual practitioners available to serve the significant US, Canadian, and European expat population alongside local Costa Rican clients. Common therapy concerns include relationship and family issues, expat adjustment, anxiety, and the stresses of building a life in a country that, while welcoming, requires significant cultural adaptation. The Universidad de Costa Rica has a strong psychology faculty that trains many of the city's therapists, and private practice is the dominant model for therapy in San José.
