As a clinical psychologist in Cincinnati, Ohio, I enjoy maintaining a small private practice specializing in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), PTSD, anxiety, depression, emotion regulation, relationship issues, men's issues, and weight loss counseling.

I believe strongly that people can change through therapy and will work with you to make changes within yourself and in your life. I focus on providing a safe, nonjudgmental environment to help people change.

Reaching out for counseling can be scary or intimidating. It can also be challenging to find the right "fit" with a therapist. I hope to offer a place where clients can feel seen, heard, and appreciated. Seeking counseling can help you make sense of your past, present, and your future. If you are feeling down, anxious, lost, or just off and your current coping skills aren't working, starting therapy might be a good next step.

If you or your child are suffering from an OCD or an anxiety disorder you are not alone. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness and yet most sufferers do not have access effective treatment. The good news is that if you or your loved one is troubled with unwanted thoughts or worries, physical symptoms due to anxiety, perfectionism, phobias, health fears, or any other anxiety there is help. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and more specifically exposure therapy has repeatedly shown to be the most effective approach for defeating anxiety and OCD.

I believe in collaboratively working with clients to help them become empowered to overcome their challenges and have greater fulfillment in their lives.

Anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder are a few of the most common problems that I see on a regular basis. The thing that all of these people have in common is that they want to get better and to live their lives with fewer struggles. According to the CDC 1 in 5 Americans will suffer from a mental illness this year. Life is hard and too many people are suffering in silence. People need an experienced therapist to help them along their journey to recovery. The International OCD Foundation states that on average someone suffering from OCD takes 17 years to receive the proper diagnosis and treatment.

Being a therapist means to me that regardless of background or identity, I will do my utmost to provide for you a safe and non-judgmental therapeutic space so that we can explore challenging thoughts and ideas.

Throughout the course of therapy, we will find ways to break down those areas of concern and then structure treatment to suit your unique mental health goals. I’m confident that not only will you find therapy a positive experience, but one where you will see yourself getting better.

I have dedicated all my academic and professional life to the study and treatment of anxiety and OCD-related disorders. Anxiety is very common, and many general therapists do an excellent job treating it. As a specialist, I tend to work with people who experience severe OCD and anxiety symptoms, have participated in residential or intensive programs (IOP, PHP), or have seen a number of therapists in the past, but have been unable to make progress. It is common for people with OCD and severe anxiety to also struggle with depression, relationship problems, etc. I can usually help people make progress in those areas, too!
