As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I have spent the past eight years walking alongside individuals as they navigate some of life’s most difficult chapters. I have had the honor of supporting survivors of trauma and abuse, individuals living with depression, anxiety, and ADHD, victims of crime, and those carrying the unique challenges of immigration-related stress.

I believe every person has a story that deserves to be heard with compassion and without judgment. My role is not to tell you who to become, but to help you reconnect with the strength, resilience, and wisdom that already exist within you. Together, we create a space where healing can unfold, wounds can be understood, and hope can begin to take root again.

Whether you are carrying the weight of past experiences, feeling overwhelmed by the present, or searching for a path forward, you do not have to walk that journey alone.

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 San Diego, CA

Finding OCD therapists in San Diego starts with looking for experience with obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, contamination concerns, checking, intrusive thoughts, and related anxiety. Exposure and response prevention is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for profiles that mention exposure and response prevention, OCD-focused care, or experience helping people living with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

San Diego has a large mental health care market, which can make it harder to know which therapist is the right fit across neighborhoods like Hillcrest, North Park, La Jolla, and Mission Valley. Some people prefer in-person OCD therapy near home or work, while others use virtual sessions to expand their options and fit care into their schedule. Beyond specialty, compare appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and how they describe their approach. A therapist bio can show whether OCD is listed as a general area of familiarity or whether the therapist has specific training in exposure and response prevention.

Therapy in San Diego can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your out-of-pocket estimate before you book. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists in San Diego who match your preferences and offer in-person or virtual care, so you can review bios, compare availability, confirm coverage for your specific plan and location on Headway, and book directly when you’re ready.
