I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in the treatment of OCD and anxiety disorders. I work with adults and seniors and am passionate about helping people better understand their anxiety, build confidence, and create meaningful change in their lives.
My interest in anxiety and OCD is both personal and professional. I have spent more than 10 years studying anxiety and have pursued specialized training in OCD treatment and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Having experienced the impact that effective treatment can have personally, I understand how difficult it can be to take that first step toward getting help, and how empowering it can be when you find the right support.
