Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Bala Cynwyd, PA

I’m a licensed clinical psychologist with advanced training in evidence-based assessment and treatment for a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, panic attacks and panic disorder/agoraphobia, anger and irritability, trauma and PTSD, personality disorders, OCD, and alcohol and other substance use. I also work with clients navigating concerns such as relationship or family conflict, grief, and general life stressors.

I earned my doctoral degree in clinical psychology and have experience providing both individual, couples, and group treatment across inpatient and outpatient clinical settings. I’ve worked closely with psychiatrists and other medical professionals, including nurse practitioners and social workers, as part of interdisciplinary treatment teams. Much of my clinical work has focused on adults presenting with complex and co-occurring concerns.

I take a warm, empathetic, and direct approach to working my clients. I believe that people can be incredibly resilient when they put their minds to it. Together, we can tap into your potential to strengthen your competence and tackle your goals. I will fight for you to rid yourself of unhelpful patterns and narrow the gap to the life you desire.

Since 2013, I’ve helped clients overcome social anxiety, gaming addiction, and substance abuse—while also developing emotional intelligence and building healthier relationships. I understand firsthand how internet culture, modern relationships, and existential doubt shape our struggles. My approach is direct but empathetic, balancing honesty with actionable solutions to help you take control of your life.

If you're stuck in a cycle of doomscrolling, blackpilling, or social withdrawal, I can help you break free. We’ll work on improving emotional communication, navigating online and offline relationships, and developing a stronger sense of self. Therapy with me is engaging, sometimes humorous, but always focused on real growth. I minimize worksheets and prioritize evidenced-based solutions. I utilize ACT, REBT and CBT to help you identify issues and create lasting change. I also draw from my academic background in existential philosophy and critical theory. I'm a genuine, goofy but direct person, I like having real conversations and I offer free consultations.
