Hello! My approach is centered in the belief that authentic connection with ourselves and others heals. Therapy is an opportunity to dive deep, to develop greater self knowledge, to come into wholeness, accepting and integrating all of our parts and aligning our lives with our Truth and the fullness of who we are. I look forward to the opportunity to support you.
I provide compassionate, evidence-based mental health care in a safe, judgment-free space.
I work with adults who want to better understand themselves, strengthen emotional resilience, and create meaningful, lasting change. My style is warm, collaborative, and empowering — I believe you are the expert on your own life.
As a graduate of the University of Southern California, my training emphasized both clinical excellence and authentic human connection. I integrate CBT and DBT-informed approaches to help clients develop practical skills for managing emotions, navigating relationships, setting healthy boundaries, and shifting unhelpful thought patterns.
I was drawn to this work because I’ve seen how powerful self-awareness and skill-building can be in transforming not only how we cope, but how we experience ourselves and our relationships. I understand that seeking therapy can feel vulnerable, and I strive to create a grounded, supportive space where you feel truly seen — while also gently challenged to grow in ways that build confidence, clarity, and lasting self-trust.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a OCD Therapist in Pasadena, CA
Finding OCD therapists in Pasadena starts with looking for training that matches obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can include intrusive thoughts, contamination concerns, checking behaviors, compulsions, and related anxiety. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people with OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that mention ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or direct experience supporting people living with OCD.
Pasadena has a focused local mental health care market, so virtual appointments can expand your options beyond nearby offices. Some people prefer meeting in person, while others choose virtual sessions for scheduling flexibility or easier access to a therapist with specific OCD training. A therapist who lists OCD as an area of familiarity may offer support, while a therapist with specific ERP training may be a closer fit for OCD-focused care. Read therapist bios before booking to understand their approach, session style, availability, and whether they offer a free phone consultation.
Therapy in Pasadena can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see what you may pay before your first appointment. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans and offer clear profile details. You can compare therapists, review bios, see estimated costs after entering your insurance, and book directly when you’re ready.
