I am a licensed clinical psychologist with a solid background in evidence-based care, combined with genuine compassion and a commitment to helping my patients overcome challenges and improve their quality of life. Over the past eight years, I have worked with children, teens, and adults on various mental health issues. My research experience covers topics like disordered eating, self-esteem, and media influences, which helps me understand how external factors affect mental health. Most importantly, I see therapy as a partnership built on trust, respect, and your unique strengths and experiences.
I earned my Psy.D. in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University New England, along with Master degrees in Clinical Psychology and Media Studies, and a B.A. in Psychology from UCLA. My experience includes APA-accredited placements at respected institutions, including the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center and the Northern Arizona VA Health Care System. I have also done training in assessments, counseling, and residential treatments for children and families. I currently run a private practice at Inspired Minds Psychological Services PLLC and support Veterans through the Department of Veterans Affairs, which is deeply meaningful to me. I am licensed to practice in Florida and Texas.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Garland
Finding OCD therapists in Garland starts with looking for training that matches the care you need. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people with OCD, and not every therapist has specific training in it. As you compare options, look for experience with intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination fears, reassurance seeking, or related anxiety concerns. A therapist’s bio can help you see whether they list OCD, ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or acceptance and commitment therapy as part of their approach.
Garland has local therapy options, and virtual care can also expand your search across Texas when you want more choice or need a schedule that fits your day. For OCD care, it helps to look beyond whether a therapist lists OCD as a specialty and check for direct ERP experience, session structure, and current appointment availability. You can also review whether a therapist offers a free phone consultation, which gives you a chance to ask about their approach before booking a first session.
Therapy in Garland can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway makes it easier to compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, choose virtual or in-person care, and book directly when you’re ready.
