You’re constantly questioning things most people don’t even think twice about.
What if I hurt someone? What if I missed something important? What if I’m a bad person and don’t even know it?
You replay conversations, double-check tasks, analyze your thoughts for meaning, and try to feel certain–but the relief never lasts long.
You’re stuck in a loop of doubt, fear, and mental rituals that take up way too much of your time and energy.
Even though some part of you knows your fears are irrational, they still feel very real.
You’re not choosing this. You’re not overreacting. And you’re definitely not alone.
Living with OCD is exhausting.
It can feel like your brain is constantly running in the background—testing, checking, and trying to figure things out.
You might:
- Ask for reassurance over and over
- Avoid people, places, or activities that feel “risky”
- Mentally review events to make sure you didn’t do something wrong
- Repeatedly Google symptoms or scary possibilities
- Try to “neutralize” upsetting thoughts with other thoughts or actions
- Constantly seek certainty in a world that just won’t give it
And when you try to not do these things? The anxiety skyrockets.
OCD doesn’t show up because you’re weak or broken.
It shows up because your brain is doing too good of a job trying to protect you—just in the wrong way.
The good news?
There’s a research-backed treatment that actually works.
Therapy can help you break free from the cycle.
I specialize in treating OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard approach that’s backed by years of clinical research.
ERP helps you face your fears in a safe, structured way, while resisting the compulsions that keep OCD alive.
It’s not about “thinking more positively” or debating your intrusive thoughts.
It’s about changing how you respond to them so they no longer have power over you.
With practice, you’ll build confidence, emotional flexibility, and a deeper sense of freedom.
What therapy for OCD with me looks like:
- A space where your scariest thoughts are met with zero judgment
- A collaborative, personalized plan that fits your specific OCD themes (like harm, contamination, relationship, moral, religious, or existential fears)
- Concrete strategies you can use outside of session
- Exposure practices that challenge OCD—without overwhelming you
- Support in managing the shame, burnout, and self-doubt that often come with OCD
- Humor, compassion, and steady support as we do this brave work together
Therapy can give you the tools to face your fears and get back to the life you want to live.
The life you have been dreaming of is within reach.
Lasting change is possible.
Imagine feeling confidently grounded to take on anything life throws your way.
Don’t let OCD and anxiety steal more of your precious life from you.
