I have years of experience working with clients struggling with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, OCD, and substance abuse.
Are you tired of the mental struggle of constantly counting calories, pursuing weight loss, or hating your body? Perhaps you have been on diet after diet and no matter what the number on the scale says, you still feel like you aren’t good enough. Maybe you have struggled with food and weight for so long, you think there is no way out! I want you to stick with me for a minute...What would it feel like to be able to wake up and not have food, weight, and exercise at the forefront of your mind? What if you could manage your emotions, even distressing ones, without turning to behaviors that are no longer serving you?

Are you looking for a specialist in trauma, anxiety, relationships, and sex therapy? Maybe your partner is now just your roommate? Wonder why you have a racing heart and can't control the worry? What if you feel like your trauma is taking over your entire life? Rather isolate than continue to swipe right into empty relationships? Is your sexual "performance" preventing you from showing up in the bedroom? These are stories I hear often. Elevated worry, unprocessed trauma events, and sexual concerns can be overwhelming!

Life is beautiful, but it can be hard to face the challenges that come with it sometimes. Whether it be medical issues, family/relationship problems, or just common life stresses, all of us have challenges to overcome. Some challenges are short-lived and can be overcome with small adaptations of our mindset and/or coping strategies. Others, however, can be quite daunting and complex, such as trauma and addiction. I believe that regardless of the issues we face, we all want basically the same things - to feel safe and comfortable with ourselves, within our relationships, and in the world.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
