Therapist

I work with people who feel caught between who they've been and who they're becoming. Many of my clients are navigating trauma, identity shifts, major life transitions, or a longing to feel more connected to themselves and the people around them. Often, they arrive feeling overwhelmed by change, weighed down by old roles or patterns, and uncertain about what comes next.

My goal is to create a space where you can slow down, explore what you're carrying, and begin moving toward a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and aligned with who you are.

That saying, "What doesn't kill me makes me stronger" -- I think it should be "What doesn't kill me makes me suffer." So many people feel unheard, disconnected, tired, worthless, fearful, sad, anxious and forgettable. They need the skills to nurture their resilience, to discern their incredible value. There's a loneliness in struggling. But I'm here to help you heal yourself with a new, creative perspective and find resources you didn't know you possessed.

Happy patient looking away

Find an expert who truly understands OCD

Headway helps you manage obsessive-compulsive disorder with expert-guided support — from finding the right therapist or psychiatrist, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Chandler

Finding OCD therapists in Chandler starts with looking for the right training, not just the right location. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare options, look for experience with intrusive thoughts, compulsions, avoidance, reassurance seeking, and related anxiety concerns. A therapist’s bio can help you see whether they list ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or OCD as a specific focus area.

Chandler offers a solid local search area, with access to nearby parts of the East Valley and virtual appointments across Arizona. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home or work, while others choose virtual care to expand the number of OCD-focused therapists they can consider. When narrowing your search, compare availability, scheduling flexibility, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. It also helps to read bios closely, since a therapist who lists OCD as one area of experience may differ from one who describes specific ERP training and a structured approach to OCD care.

Therapy in Chandler can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, review estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and compare care options that match your needs. You can browse therapist profiles, review their OCD experience, and book directly when you’re ready.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
