Mind is full of energy, so health of the mind matters first”- Hira Ratan Manek.
Hello! I'm a Board-Certified Nurse Practitioner with a Doctorate in Nursing, specializing in psychiatry. I'm qualified to diagnose, treat, and prescribe medication for children, adolescents, adults, and older adults. My areas of focus include depression, anxiety, mood disorders, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, ADHD, OCD, panic disorder, and PTSD.
I believe in treating each person holistically — considering the mental, physical, environmental, and social factors that shape your wellbeing. My approach is non-judgmental, because I understand there is no shame or guilt in seeking help for mental health. Many of the clients I work with come to me feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and anxious — and helping them move through that is exactly why I do this work. Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with family, reading, shopping, and trying new foods.
As a licensed professional counselor and psychotherapist, my relationship with my client is the most important aspect of the process. I strive for connection and a collaborative spirit. It is always my goal to help the client with their unique and special needs. Whether someone struggles with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, trauma, or general relational issues, I want to develop a plan with them that will be customized to their needs, and specific to what their desired outcome is.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Pasadena
Finding OCD therapists in Pasadena starts with looking for the right training, not just a general specialty label. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you’re seeking support for intrusive thoughts, compulsions, obsessions, avoidance, or related anxiety, review therapist bios for direct experience with OCD and ERP. An obsession therapist or OCD-focused therapist may also list approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or anxiety-focused care.
Pasadena is a smaller local market, so your best fit may be nearby, virtual, or a mix of both. Virtual appointments can expand your options beyond therapists with offices close to home, while in-person care may fit better if you prefer a set location for sessions. As you compare therapists, look at appointment availability, whether they offer a free phone consultation, and how they describe their work with OCD. A bio that names ERP training or structured OCD care gives you more useful information than one that only lists OCD as an area of familiarity.
Therapy in Pasadena can be expensive without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review their bios, check whether they accept your plan, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. From there, you can choose a therapist who matches your needs, schedule, and coverage.
