Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Mountain View, CA

I have a wide breadth of professional and personal experience with different age groups and populations, allowing me to easily connect with clients from the first interaction with warmth and compassion. I am highly adaptable in session, with a mix of humor, as well as softness with vulnerable and intimate spaces, in order to find connection and attunement with each client.

I specialize primarily in the treatment of eating disorders, as someone in recovery myself. My overarching goal for my clients is to encourage empowerment and self-compassion through autonomy and accountability. This is especially important in regard to your body and what you allow into your physical and emotional space. My priority for my clients is to nurture you. I want you to find ways to sustainability nourish yourself and those around you.

There's a version of getting through life that looks completely fine from the outside and feels exhausting on the inside. I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are carrying more than it shows: anxiety, the aftereffects of trauma, major life transitions, or relationship patterns that keep repeating in ways that are hard to explain. I have a particular focus on trauma and attachment wounds and work with many clients who've spent years managing symptoms without ever addressing what's underneath them. My practice is warm and genuinely collaborative. I'll show up as a real partner in your growth, not a distant presence behind a notepad.

I provide psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and supportive therapy for kids, teens and adults. I specialize in treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders and trauma-related conditions. For individuals concerned about ADHD, I offer comprehensive evaluations that may include FDA-cleared computerized testing, clinical interviews, and standardized rating scales to help support an accurate diagnosis and guide treatment decisions. My goal is to provide clear answers, personalized care, and practical strategies that help you function at your best.

You’re the one who holds it all together. On paper it’s working — the career, the relationships, the discipline. Underneath, you’re anxious, tired, and disconnected. Intellect, stamina, perfectionism and people-pleasing may have gotten you far — but now its part of a pattern that keeps you stuck.

I see driven, self-aware adults who are often the most capable person in the room despite (and because of) their bodies holding patterns of high-functioning anxiety, trauma, and depression.

The pattern lives within your nervous system — so this work includes the mind, body, and environment. Yes, we will explore your patterns & why they exist, AND we’ll notice them in your body, in real time. Coherence, parts work, Brainspotting, ART, EFT- different tools, one principle: change consolidates through experience, not just explanation.

I have worked with many different issues and people over the last 10 years.

Currently I am focusing on working with patients who have OCD and anxiety disorders, I use ERP (Exposure Response Prevention) therapy designed specifically for anxiety/OCD.

This therapy (ERP) is considered the "gold standard" treatment for OCD due to its high effectiveness.

OCD can be very distressing and the intrusive thoughts and fears can feel unbearable. Know that thoughts are just thoughts they are not YOU.

What patterns keep repeating in your life, even when part of you wants something different? I work with infants, children, adolescents, adults, and seniors, with a particular focus on experiences that are hard to put into words: the quiet accumulation of feeling disconnected or unseen, questions around adoption and family origins, infertility, the emotional weight of becoming a parent, and the grief that comes when life takes an unexpected shape. A lot of what brings people to therapy is not a single event. It builds. I trained at UCLA and bring both clinical depth and genuine warmth to this work.

I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a safe, judgment-free space.
