I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW). I received my Master's in Clinical Social Work from the University of Southern California and a Master's in Psychology/Educational Psychology from Capella University. I am clinically trained in multiple modalities to include EMDR, Psychedelic Assisted Psychotherapy, and Trauma Psychotherapy.
For the past 35 years I have helped clients work through troubling life situations. Throughout my career I have worked with a broad spectrum of clients from every walk of life. I have treated people struggling with a wide range of problems; depression, anxiety, marital difficulties, infidelity, loss of a job, domestic violence, PTSD or other life altering circumstances. Your past does NOT equal your future. Who you can become is not defined by who you have been, who you think you are now, or by what experiences that may have impacted your life to this point. My role is to challenge and empower you to transform your life, helping you to change your patterns of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that may not work or don't support you to attain the personal growth you are committed to accomplishing.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Arlington
Finding OCD therapists in Arlington starts with looking for training that matches how obsessive-compulsive disorder is often addressed in care. OCD support may focus on intrusive thoughts, compulsions, rituals, avoidance, or anxiety that connects to specific fears. Exposure and Response Prevention, often called ERP, is a common therapy approach used for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare therapists, look for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, and OCD experience in their bios so you can choose someone whose background fits your needs.
Arlington has a smaller local therapist market than nearby Washington, DC, so virtual appointments can expand your options while still giving you access to Virginia-licensed therapists. If you prefer in-person care, consider office location, commute time, and appointment availability. If virtual care fits your schedule better, look for therapists with session times that match your calendar. It can also help to read each therapist’s profile for details on how they describe OCD care, since listing OCD as an area of focus differs from naming specific ERP training or related methods.
Therapy in Arlington can be a significant investment without insurance, and using in-network coverage is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you compare therapists who are accepting new patients, review their specialties, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Headway also accepts a wide range of insurance plans nationally, with coverage confirmed based on your plan and location, so you can browse therapists, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
