I am a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor who believes therapy should feel real, human, and grounded in honest conversation. With experience in community mental health, treatment courts, group work, and clinical supervision, in addition to working with individuals navigating trauma, identity, and personal change. I also teach and mentor future counselors while researching the psychological experiences of individuals living with vitiligo. I bring a little bit of humor into therapy, because let’s face it, in this day and age a little bit of laughing takes stress off our already hectic lives; though when it is time to get serious, we will address all and any issues that may be hindering your pathways of life. My philosophy: “people are more than their labels, and growth begins when people feel seen, heard, and respected.”

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Aurora
Finding OCD therapists in Aurora starts with looking for the right training, not just a general therapy match. Obsessive-compulsive disorder can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsions, checking, reassurance seeking, contamination fears, and other OCD symptoms that vary from person to person. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is an evidence-based therapy for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you review therapist bios, look for ERP, OCD, intrusive thoughts, compulsions, or obsessive behavior listed as areas of focus.
Aurora offers both local therapy options and access to virtual care across Illinois, which can help widen your search when you want a therapist with specific OCD experience. A therapist who lists OCD as a specialty may have general familiarity, while a therapist who describes ERP training or experience with the OCD cycle may offer a more focused fit. You can also compare appointment availability, session format, and whether a free phone consultation is offered. Reading profiles before booking can help you understand how each therapist approaches OCD themes, compulsions, and care planning.
Therapy in Aurora can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for therapists who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person options, enter your insurance details, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. From there, you can review bios, check availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
