My practice focuses on providing research-backed treatments to adolescents and adults who are struggling with anxiety disorders such as OCD and PTSD. I specialize in providing exposure and response prevention (ERP) which is the gold standard treatment for OCD. Through an organized, targeted, authentic, and warm style of therapy, I help individuals who have been struggling with anxiety to take charge of their lives. My clients and I explore their values, and use targeted interventions to help them make active progress toward achieving the values-based changes they wish to see in their lives.
I am a clinician at the Mindfulness and Change Group (www.mcg.works) in Watertown, MA. I provide evidenced based treatments for OCD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety, phobias, and PTSD.
In my practice I use Exposure with Response Prevention (ERP), CBT, and trauma treatment interventions like Prolonged Exposure, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). Through our therapy, my clients describe an increased ability to accept themselves as they are while also making the changes they wish to see in their lives.
