I've specialized in working with with neuro-biological problems like ADD, LD, OCD and OCD associated with PANDAS.
From my training and over twenty five years experience in practice, I have developed a non-judgmental, collaborative, and holistic approach to help people explore their problems in living. I work with all ages from a developmental perspective which I find invaluable. I love seeing children because of their innate desire to grow. Tapping into the teen's natural thrust towards independence propels the work forward as I stay in tune with adolescent goals. With adults, I'm mindful of a person's history, but stay in the present using the therapeutic relationship to heal the past and expand awareness.

I also specialize in working with people with OCD, and use mostly Exposure and Response Prevention in this treatment.
Do you ever wake up with a pit in your stomach, but aren’t sure why? Do you have a nagging sense of being “not enough,” or a feeling like something about you just isn’t fitting in with the world around you? Do you feel like parts of you are hidden away, maybe even to yourself? Oftentimes, these feelings arise because unhelpful beliefs we carry from childhood. Becoming aware of the reasons for these beliefs is the first step in changing them and stepping into who you are.

You’re tired of barely making it through each day. You’re stuck in a pattern of feeling burnt out and stressed all the time. You wish you could be the parent, partner, or friend you know you can be. You’re sick of the past keeping you stuck, and wish you could move forward. You know all the tools and why you should feel different than you do, but none of this has actually helped you feel better. You’ve tried so hard, but are missing what you need to make lasting change and finally enjoy life. You’re ready to get out of your head and learn to be present. You’re ready to thrive, not just survive.

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.
