With 165+ reviews and a 4.96 rating on Zocdoc, I have specialized in advanced medication management for complex, treatment-resistant conditions. I utilize a neurobiological approach that focuses on frontal lobe/executive functioning, nervous system dysregulation, and neurotransmitter systems to diagnose and treat various concerns - ADHD/executive dysfunction, OCD, trauma/C-PTSD, high-masking autism, personality profiles, and cases where standard medication treatments have failed. While I specialize in clinical complexity, I bring that same deep, careful attention to treating anxiety, depression, and clients starting medication for the first time.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Saint Paul
Finding OCD therapists in Saint Paul starts with looking for the right training, not just a matching specialty label. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach commonly used in OCD care, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you’re seeking support for obsessive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, or related concerns, review therapist bios for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and clear experience with obsessive compulsive disorder.
Saint Paul offers a focused local mental health care market, with more options when you include nearby virtual care across Minnesota. Some people prefer in-person OCD therapy near home, work, or campus, while others choose virtual appointments for more scheduling flexibility or access to therapists with specific ERP training. As you compare options, look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD. Check whether they describe ERP experience, offer appointment times that fit your schedule, and provide a free phone consultation so you can ask about their approach before booking.
Therapy in Saint Paul can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check whether your plan is accepted, see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking, and schedule directly when you’re ready.
