Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Paso Robles, CA

I am a child clinical psychologist and offer psychological assessment, treatment, consultation, and training for children, families, adults, and service providers. I am trained in evidence-based interventions for anxiety, depression, obsessive compulsive behavior, and mood management. I specialize neurodiversity-affirming support of children and adults. I enjoy working with adults related to their roles as parents/caregivers, and with clients who would benefit from a developmental, diversity affirming, and/or data-informed perspective.

If you’re a parent or caregiver looking for mental health treatment for your child or teen, we’re here to help. The CCAMH Treatment Center specializes in evidence-based treatments that have been extensively researched and shown to be effective. We will do a full assessment and evaluation to determine the best treatment to address the young person's specific condition.

We work with the entire family and provide support and tools for parents including monthly virtual parent-drop in groups.

We live in a fast paced world, and in the best of times this can make it difficult to reach our personal goals. Therapy can provide the opportunity for meaningful change whether you are having difficulty adjusting to a transition in your life or are experiencing significant difficulties that are impacting your ability to function.

I believe therapy is a collaborative process and I would welcome the opportunity to support you through a transformation that allows you to reach the goals you’ve set for yourself.

I offer you a safe space to explore and grow, offering support on your journey to better wellness. You have shown the courage to reach oit, and the hope for a better way of life.

I specialize in anxiety, depression, couples counseling, teens, and children. Mental health is so important, if you were physically sick you would reach to a doctor, so don't hesitate, I'm just a call away.

What assumptions are holding you back from the life you have imagined for yourself? What possible regrets might you avoid by connecting more authentically with your true wants and needs? Our individual struggle may be recent and feel minor, or life-long, serious, and seemingly unsolvable. These struggles often show most profoundly in relationships with those closest to us, in career difficulties, or in a broader desire to connect with personal meaning. No matter your circumstance, I humbly offer myself to you as a trusted companion on your journey to explore positive change through therapy.
