Specialized Services & Clinical Focus

To treat complex cases effectively, we move beyond "standard talk therapy." My services are designed to address the deep-rooted patterns of Complex OCD, Emetophobia, and co-occurring disorders.

The Intake Process: Your Path to Specialized Care

Because complex cases require a high level of precision, our work begins with a clear, three-step clinical assessment:

  1. Clinical Consultation (15 Minutes): A brief, no-cost call to discuss your history and determine if my specialized approach is the right match for your needs.

  2. Comprehensive Diagnostic Intake: A deep-dive session where we map out your OCD triggers, co-occurring symptoms, and previous treatment experiences.

  3. The Personalized Road map: We develop a targeted treatment plan that balances behavioral science with your specific recovery goals.

1. OCD & Emetophobia Treatment

This is the core of my practice. We use a sophisticated, integrated version of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).

  • What it looks like: We don't just "talk about" your fears. We create a structured plan to safely face triggers, dismantle rituals, and reduce the power that intrusive thoughts have over your life.

  • Who it’s for: Individuals with intense, complex OCD or those dealing with a severe, life-limiting fear of vomiting (Emetophobia).

2. Integrated Trauma Recovery (PE & CPT)

For many, OCD is complicated by past trauma. I provide specialized protocols to help you process "stuck points" without being overwhelmed.

  • Prolonged Exposure (PE): Helping you safely process trauma-related memories and environments.

  • Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT): Identifying and changing the "stuck" beliefs created by traumatic events.

3. Complex Case Management

I provide a higher level of clinical care for individuals navigating OCD alongside other significant challenges:

  • Bipolar Disorder & Major Depression: Specialized stability-first ERP that respects the nuances of mood disorders.

  • Agoraphobia: Targeted behavioral strategies to help you reclaim your physical world and sense of safety.
