Welcome. If you’ve come this far, I imagine you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and frustrated - that life lacks in the meaning, vitality, and belonging that you would desire for yourself. Sometimes, despite our best efforts to overcome our problems, we can feel lost and demoralized. Should this resonate with your experience, allow me to share about my practice and how I might help. I am a clinical psychologist with a broad range of expertise and specialize in trauma, loss, and related problems of identity, relationships, and meaning.

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 Philadelphia, PA

Searching for OCD therapists in Philadelphia starts with finding someone trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care, not just someone who lists it as one of many specialties. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a commonly used therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists have training in it. If you are looking for support with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, avoidance, or related stress, review therapist bios for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, and OCD-specific experience.

Philadelphia has a large mental health care market, from Center City and University City to South Philly, Fishtown, and Northwest Philly. A wide set of options can make it harder to compare fit, so look beyond location and specialty. Consider whether a therapist offers in-person or virtual appointments, has availability that fits your schedule, is accepting new patients, and offers a free phone consultation. Therapist profiles can also show whether their OCD experience reflects focused ERP training or more general familiarity with anxiety and OCD concerns.

Therapy in Philadelphia 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 booking. Headway helps you search OCD therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, compare availability, review bios, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs upfront, so you can find a therapist who matches your needs and book directly when you are ready.
