I provide individual therapy to teens and adults struggling with OCD,  anxiety (social anxiety, agoraphobia, panic disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)), body-focused repetitive behaviours (BFRBs), such as trichotillomania or hair-pulling disorder, excoriation or skin-picking disorder, and depression.

My therapeutic approach encompasses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Mindfulness,  and CBT.
