I am a New York State licensed psychotherapist and board-certified creative arts therapist helping people with anxiety, OCD, depression, and stress at work or home. I am a big believer in the therapeutic relationship between therapist and client. I provide emotional support and a safe environment and aim to work with empathy and warmth to help generate new perspectives, aim at a sense of wholeness, and restore balance and hope. I also encourage my clients to think deeply about their lives and to take actions to create the change they want to see.
I use cognitive behavioral therapy to alleviate symptoms and a psychodynamic approach to explore attachments and relationships. I am also licensed to use non-verbal forms of exploration such as art therapy and have an interest in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I have been practicing for 10 years.
As a bilingual psychotherapist having worked with a wide range of demographics and populations over the years, i have learned providing a nonjudgemental and warm space is the foundation of effective therapy.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in New York
Searching for OCD therapists in New York starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder and exposure and response prevention therapy. Exposure and response prevention, or ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy for OCD, and not all therapists have specific training in it. If you’re looking for support with obsessive thoughts, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, or related stress, review each therapist’s listed specialties and approach. Look for profiles that mention OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy.
Across New York, available OCD therapy options can vary between New York City, Buffalo, Albany, and more rural areas. Virtual care can expand your search beyond the closest office while still letting you choose in-person care when location matters. As you compare therapists, look beyond whether OCD appears in a profile. A therapist who lists ERP training, OCD-focused experience, free phone consultations, and appointment times that fit your schedule may be a stronger match than one who notes general familiarity with OCD. Reading bios can help you understand how each therapist structures sessions and supports people with OCD.
The cost of OCD therapy in New York can be significant without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you find OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, take your insurance, and offer upfront cost estimates before you book. Nationally, Headway partners with 3076 insurance plans, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
