Therapist

My journey started with volunteering in the Guidance Counselor's office at my high school. In this setting, my emotional intelligence and level of empathy began to grow. I decided to study Psychology to understand how the mind works, then studied Social Work to understand how that mind works when affected by events in the environment. I have worked extensively with children/ students, the LGBTQIA+ community, people living with HIV/ AIDS, the elderly, Veterans, Immigrants, couples and families. I accept clients no matter their race, gender, ethnicity or background. I utilize a strength- based approach for my clients as I believe we all have the ability to take control of our own lives.

I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, regardless of their background or circumstances. Whether you are struggling with excessive worry or negative thoughts, overwhelmed by schoolwork as a student, supporting a family member with autism or developmental disability, or facing challenges as a member of a marginalized group in society, it is common to feel hopeless and worthless at times. However, you do not have to give in to these feelings.

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 Lexington

When searching for OCD therapists in Lexington, start by looking for a therapist with specific training in obsessive-compulsive disorder and exposure and response prevention, often called ERP. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsions, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and mental rituals. Many therapists support anxiety or stress, but not all have training in ERP. Reading bios for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, and OCD experience can help you find a therapist whose approach matches what you want from care.

Lexington is a smaller market, so the number of local OCD therapists with ERP training may be limited. Virtual appointments can expand your options across Massachusetts while still giving you access to care from home. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they are accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. A therapist’s profile can also show how they describe their style, session structure, and experience with OCD-specific care.

Therapy in Lexington can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare therapists who are accepting new patients, verify your insurance, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can review bios, filter by preferences, and book directly when you find a therapist who matches your needs and accepts your plan.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
