Since therapy is about you, I will offer a little about myself. I was born and raised in rural Appalachia. My dad was a steel worker and a solid human being. He was the coach of my little league baseball team and taught me everything about nature. My mom however, was the one who inspired me to become a therapist. She never went to school for psychology, but she was one of the most naturally astute observers of human behavior I have ever known. She had an innate ability to truly see people, and they were drawn to her because of it. Her greatest gift was her discernment: she knew exactly when someone needed a silent, supportive ear and when they needed a practical problem solver. She always gave people precisely what they were seeking, and watching her transform lives just by listening is what made me want to do the same.

Therapist

Psychotherapy provides a safe place to discuss fears, thoughts, and difficult decisions we as humans must make during our journey in life. I believe we are capable of making life changes with the right tools. I am here to listen without judgement. I believe we all have a story to share. Being heard is one of the most important aspects of communication.

My passion is working with clients who have experienced some form of trauma in their lives. By sharing your story, we can begin to process the trauma from experience to a new understanding, while remaining in the present.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy Chair

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 Tacoma

Finding OCD therapists in Tacoma starts with looking for the right training, not just a general specialty match. OCD care may support people living with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, reassurance seeking, contamination fears, or distressing mental loops. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common evidence-based approach for OCD, and not every therapist is trained in it. As you compare therapists, read their bios for ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, or direct experience with OCD support.

Tacoma has a steady mental health care market, and your best fit may be in a nearby office or through a virtual appointment. Virtual care can expand your options if you want therapy for OCD in Tacoma but need more scheduling flexibility or a therapist with specific ERP training. Look for signs that a therapist has more than general familiarity with OCD, such as listed ERP experience, OCD-focused counseling, or work with specific OCD-related concerns. Provider bios can also show how a therapist structures sessions, communicates, and approaches care.

Therapy in Tacoma can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing OCD care more affordable. Headway helps you search for Tacoma OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, compare bios, check insurance fit, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. From there, you can browse therapists, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
