My specialty is working with children, adolescents and adults struggling with OCD and anxiety. I previously worked at McLean’s residential OCD facility and Rogers' anxiety/OCD residential, partial and intensive programs. For anxiety and OCD, the gold-standard therapy is a powerful approach called exposure therapy (ERP). Through this systematic process people learn how to face their fears and no longer be controlled by them, which provides a liberating and confidence building experience. I also use a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and compassion-focused therapy (CFT).
I am licensed to provide therapy to clients in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York and Maine. I also offer parent workshops which provide a strong understanding of how anxiety/OCD works, specific strategies that unintentionally strengthen the anxiety/OCD, and powerful techniques parents can use to help their child who is struggling with anxiety/OCD.
I am also the Co-Founder of The OCD Academy, which offers educational OCD-based resources. As an OCD specialist, I conduct full-day continuing education training workshops for mental health professionals. Additionally, my research focuses on increasing awareness regarding OCD and decreasing mental health related stigma.

Adult OCD Support Group
Support groups provide an ideal space to, both learn from and help others who are going through similar struggles. Additionally, the OCD support group provides educational components focused on aspects related to OCD treatment. Examples of the topics include: cognitive reframing versus reassurance, perfectionism, thought defusion, and mastering the skill of developing exposures. The goal of the group is to provide an informative, compassionate, and collaborative space to assist individuals with OCD. The group is currently being held virtually via Zoom.
