What would be important for someone to know about working with you?

Even though OCD can be difficult and impact those around you, the right treatment approach is available to get you the help you need. Treatment can be difficult but I use evidence based practices that show positive results.

What does a first session with you look like?

Building rapport. Getting to know you. Having you learn more about myself. Go through some psychoeducation for any related issues. Develop a plan of action to address the issues you are coming into therapy with.

What excites you most about the evolving mental health landscape?

The availability of telehealth excites me as it offers treatment services to such a broader range of individuals. Opening up the chance for more and more people to receive quality mental health care.
