We begin with the concerns that bring you to treatment. Evaluation and recommendations come next. I offer expertise about certain conditions and best treatment practices. Each individual, child, and family bring their unique experience and perspective. That experience and perspective help inform treatment.
My general approach to treatment is collaboration. Each individual is an expert on themselves. Successful treatment requires collaboration between both experts.
Sessions are available in person and virtually.
I treat children, adolescents, and adults experiencing:
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) – all forms/themes. I can provide evaluations for OCD and consults for next steps in existing treatment; referrals for medication assessment are available
- Anxiety Disorders – generalized anxiety (GAD), panic, social anxiety, agoraphobia
- Specific Phobias
- Avoidant Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (AFRID) – I provide psychotherapy in combination with a nutritionist and MD to treat this condition
- Trauma – acute and post-traumatic stress disorder
- Parenting support and coaching – for parents with younger children who have anxiety and/or OCD; for parents who have adult children living at home with significant anxiety and/or OCD
- Adolescent Adjustment Problems
