You, your teen or child is struggling with distressing thoughts, which create anxiety. There are strong urges to do something to get immediate relief, whether it be avoidance, a ritual, or a physical or mental action. You or your child feel better in the moment, but it’s only temporary relief. This OCD or anxiety cycle quickly returns and becomes a vicious cycle day after day and they are mentally and physically exhausted. It leaves this uncomfortable feeling of distress. OCD, anxiety and trauma take up up time, energy and space in their mind which makes it difficult to live in the present moment. You crave long-term relief.
I provide specialized care for OCD and anxiety w/ Exposure and Response Prevention, CBT & ACT. Gradually & compassionately, I will teach strategies to face your fears safely without the avoidance or compulsion. You and your child will learn a different way to relate to unwanted thoughts to manage OCD/anxiety/trauma for long-term relief.
Living a life ruled by anxiety, OCD, trauma or stress can make every day feel like running in mud. I have my certification in ERP for OCD through Cognitive Behavior Institute. Contact me today for a free consultation if you, your child or teen is ready to take steps towards living the life they want to live without OCD, anxiety or trauma holding them back!
