About

Anxiety and OCD can be frightening; they require specialized, evidence-based treatment. I am a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in the treatment of anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in teens and young adults. My clinical work is grounded in gold-standard, research-based therapies, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). These treatments are recommended as best practice for anxiety and OCD and are designed to produce meaningful, lasting change, not just temporary relief of symptoms. Not all mental health treatments are equal. Some are backed by scientific evidence; others are not. I use evidence-based treatments (EBT) designed to address your specific condition. EBTs are best practice and preferred approaches according to the American Psychological Association, and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
