About

Are you or your child, experiencing symptoms of anxiety, panic, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), tics or struggling with a phobia? Perhaps you're having a difficult time sleeping or find yourself worrying about bad things happening or what people think of you? You could be experiencing unwanted thoughts that you are unable to let go of, or fear losing control and something bad happening. You may be struggling to move past something difficult that happened and it’s taking away from your quality of life. Living with anxiety can be crippling, but with evidenced based treatment, symptoms can improve fairly quickly. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), specifically Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Inference Bases Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT). Additionally, I am trained in EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD and CBIT for Tics. Gold standard protocols will help you feel better quickly.
