My Ideal Client

My main areas of clinical focus are: obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD); body-focused repetitive behaviors, such as: hair-pulling (trichotillomania) & skin-picking (excoriation); generalized and social anxiety. I work with people from all walks of life and particularly enjoy working with the LGBTQ2S+ community.

My Approach to Helping

Counseling can be helpful in numerous ways. Some examples include: building skills to manage anxiety and mood, overcoming obsessions and compulsions, working through past trauma, and overcoming fear of social situations. I take a client-centered, collaborative approach and utilize evidence-based practices, such as behavioral therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and mindfulness & acceptance-based approaches. Clinical supervision is a key component in shaping who we are as counselors and how we approach this work.
