Has anxiety or OCD taken a starring role your life? You have aspirations but they fall victim to doubts: “what ifs,” catastrophes, fear of judgement, panic. Or maybe compulsions are preventing you from engaging the way you want to. I can help you kick anxiety to the back seat so you can accomplish your goals and achieve the peace you deserve.
I've completed specialized training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. Anxiety disorders and OCD are my specialty. I work with folks 18+ exclusively through videoconferencing so I can see you no matter where in Georgia you happen to be.
I want people to know that therapists don't belong on pedestals; we have our own struggles and good therapists use them to become better practitioners. I chose my specialty because I've been there. If you're looking for a nonjudgemental therapist that shows her humanity and embraces it with humor then I might be a good fit for you.

When I'm treating OCD I use ERP which will allow you to gradually let go of obsessions and compulsions with both in-session and out-of-session work. ERP involves a good deal of structure and guidance so you'll always know where you're headed. It's also flexible so we can pivot as needed to make sure we're going in the right direction.
