BFRB/OCD Services

While I enjoy working with folks experiencing a wide variety of issues (see services tab for more details), I do want to name that I have lived experience with trichotillomania and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). I have advanced training in treating both body focused repetitive behavioral disorders (BFRBs) and OCD. I work with folks who experience any and/or all of the BFRBs, such as, hair pulling and/or skin picking. I work with folks who experience any of the many OCD themes/subtypes.

I believe in evidenced-based treatment. I am trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). For the treatment of BFRBs, I use the approach of comprehensive behavioral therapy (ComB). For the treatment of OCD, I use the approach of exposure response and prevention therapy (ERP) with adjunctive ACT. I also participate in ongoing consultation and attend the IOCDF conference yearly. I value staying current on OCD and BFRB research and treatment.
