Compassionate and Effective Therapy for OCD, Anxiety, and Misophonia
Therapy for children, adolescents, and adults with OCD, anxiety, and misophonia in Philadelphia and online across most of the USA.
Grounded in evidence-based approaches and personalized to clients one at a time.
I am a psychologist and researcher who specializes in therapy for children, teens, and adults struggling with OCD, anxiety, and misophonia.
I have been a therapist and trained clinicians in leading OCD centers, and also published extensively on OCD, anxiety, and misophonia in scientific journals. I teach for the International OCD Foundation Behavior Therapy Training Institute and conduct research with the University of Pennsylvania and Baylor College of Medicine.
My goal is to help you or your child live a fuller life by finding new, practical, and effective ways to overcome these conditions.
OCD
OCD is an emotionally painful cycle of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that feel out of your control. OCD can impact every aspect of a person’s life, including their school, job, family, and relationships.
Effective therapy for OCD helps people break that cycle, build new habits, and reclaim their life.
Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal and even helpful emotion, but when it becomes constant or overwhelming, it can take the joy out of life. People might start avoiding the most meaningful parts of their life or constantly feel on edge.
Therapy for anxiety enables people to approach these situations with confidence and learn that they can handle anxiety and live a full life even when they feel anxious.
Misophonia
It is normal to feel annoyed by sounds or visuals, but for people with misophonia, reactions to triggers like chewing, sniffing, or tapping can feel overwhelming and impossible to ignore. They can begin to affect every aspect of life, including their family, relationships, mood, and their ability to live, work, or learn.
Therapy for misophonia helps people develop new relationships with their triggers and supports them in learning new ways of coping.
