About

I have the utmost respect for my clients, because it requires patience, bravery and perseverance to combat OCD. OCD traps us in thought-loops and tries to convince us that we "have to" do something to fight doubt. True freedom lies in tolerating distress while not letting the doubt get in the way of living the life you value. I have a particular passion for working with couples in which one or more partners experience anxiety or OCD. OCD attacks the people and things we care most about, and can be particularly devastating to relationships due to patterns of reassurance-seeking, emotional distress and time-consuming compulsions.
