Most therapists treat a wide range of things. I treat OCD and anxiety, specifically, deeply, and with a level of clinical focus that only comes from choosing not to do everything. If OCD or anxiety is what you are dealing with, that specificity is exactly what you deserve in a therapist.
We’ll choose the treatment that aligns with your specific needs and keeps your voice in mind. For OCD, that means specialized tools like I-CBT or ERP. For anxiety, we use evidence-based CBT and mindfulness to help you retrain your mind and body.
I care deeply about creating a space that feels warm, grounded, and real. We are absolutely doing meaningful work together, but there is also room for humor, honesty, and being actual human beings in the room.
Sessions are purposeful and always moving toward something. They are also direct and reflective, with some light-hearted humor along the way.
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re in a tough spot. You’ve worked hard to hold it together and support everyone around you, but right now, you are the one who needs support and tools.
You may be struggling with mental loops that won’t shut off or “what-ifs” that intrude on your daily life. It is exhausting to live on edge, feeling like your brain and body have been hijacked by constant worry. I believe therapy is a place where you can show up exactly as you are. I will meet you there with no judgment and a clear plan to help you move forward.
Therapy with me is collaborative, intentional, and structured. My goal is simple: help you spend less time trapped in mental loops and more time actually living your life.

Therapy should feel purposeful, thoughtful, and grounded in a process that actually supports meaningful change.
People deserve to feel heard, understood, and cared for without shame, judgment, or pressure to “have it all figured out.”
Warmth matters, but so does strategy. Treatment here is grounded in research-backed approaches designed to create real progress.
Healing does not have to come from fear, shame, or pushing yourself into the ground. Growth can be challenging and compassionate.
I believe therapy works best when people feel safe enough to actually be themselves instead of performing wellness in the room.
Many of my clients are intelligent, thoughtful, high-functioning women who are successful on the outside while privately struggling with anxiety, intrusive thoughts, perfectionism, reassurance-seeking, or mental exhaustion underneath it all.
Early sessions focus on understanding the full picture of your life, including your symptoms, relationships, stressors, routines, support system, and the patterns impacting your mental health.
Together, we will work through a structured treatment process designed to reduce your OCD symptoms, build insight, and help you respond differently to your intrusive thoughts.
This is the ultimate goal: a life that actually feels like yours again. You begin to trust yourself, your own senses and move forward with increased confidence.
OCD treatment is definitely my specialty, but I also work with generalized anxiety, perfectionism, overthinking, reassurance-seeking, and the mental exhaustion that can come from constantly feeling “on” all the time.
Most of my clients are thoughtful, intelligent, high-achieving women who look completely fine externally while internally feeling mentally overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in loops, or emotionally exhausted.
Warm, collaborative, structured, and very human. I want therapy to feel grounded and intentional while still feeling like a real conversation between two people. Also, I promise I am not going to stare at you in silence for fifty minutes.
Yes. I-CBT is one of my primary treatment approaches for OCD and a lot of people specifically seek me out because they are looking for an alternative to more exposure-heavy approaches.
No. I work with adults only and primarily focus on women in their 20s through 40s.
Yes. I provide virtual therapy for clients located in Florida, Texas, and Virginia.
A lot of my clients have had therapy experiences that felt too vague, surface-level, or simply not specialized enough for OCD and anxiety. That does not mean therapy cannot help. Often, it just means you have not found the right fit or the right process yet.
Definitely not. The work we are doing is evidence-based and structured, but I also think therapy should feel warm, conversational, and emotionally safe enough for people to actually show up honestly.
