Why do I help people with OCD and anxiety Disorders?

“Early in my career, I worked with a client who had OCD and realized that I needed more specialized training and skill set to provide the help my client deserved. That experience motivated me to pursue extensive education and training in treating OCD and anxiety disorders.

For more than 20 years, I’ve helped people better understand their symptoms, face their fears, and work toward reclaiming their lives. I’ve also worked with family members and partners, helping them learn how to support a loved one with OCD or an anxiety disorder.

In 2024, I retired. Retirement was enjoyable for a while, but I soon realized how much I missed the purpose and fulfillment of this work. My passion for helping people led me to reopen my practice.

If you are seeking therapy for OCD or an anxiety disorder, call my office for a free 30-minute consultation.”
