OCD is frequently misunderstood and mistreated. Many therapists use general talk therapy or CBT, which can actually make OCD worse. A specialized OCD therapist uses targeted treatments like ERP and ICBT that are designed for how OCD actually works. Unlike general therapy, these approaches require specific training and experience to do effectively. If you're looking for specialized OCD care in North Carolina or Virginia, I can help you get the treatment you deserve.

I take on new clients by application only. I work with women and teens who are ready for personalized OCD treatment. Submit an application to be considered - I personally review each one to ensure we're the right fit.

Before you see any therapist, call your insurance company. Ask the rep what your in- and out-of-network benefits are for mental health therapy.

I am in-network with Aetna and Ambetter. I am a Tricare certified provider, which means that you could be eligible for reimbursement for a portion of the session fees. Many Tricare clients get between $65-$90 off per appointment.

No, I do not take Medicaid.

I do offer CareCredit or you can opt for private pay. Learn more about those options here.

Yes! I have lots of experience of working with teenagers. Teens are definitely stressed out more than ever these days and I am happy to discuss if your teen and I are a good fit for therapy.

Weekly. I get that life is busy and you have a lot going on. Therapy is intended to be time-limited so it is not ongoing forever. Meeting for therapy every week is proven to give you better results and can help you reach your treatment goals faster. As you make progress, we go to every other week.

No. I am a master’s level therapist. If you need medication, I am happy to find you a medical doctor that can do so.

My office is in the blue building of the Habitat for Humanity administrative offices at 294 East Main Avenue, Taylorsville, NC 28681.

24 hours. Cancellations need to be made 24 hours before your appointment. Any cancellation within 24 hours of your therapy appointment is subject to a charge of the full fee for the session ($175). I encourage you to prioritize your mental health and get the most out of your therapy treatment.

The hourly rate is determined by the money required to sustain my practice and support ongoing advanced training.

I offer individual therapy and an intensive outpatient program.

Individual therapy sessions are 50-55 minutes & fees are as follows:

• First session: $225

• Follow up sessions: $195

Yes! I provide online therapy for OCD throughout North Carolina and Virginia. Using evidence-based approaches like ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention), I help clients manage obsessions and compulsions from the comfort of their own home.

I specialize in two powerful approaches for OCD: Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Inference-Based CBT (ICBT). ERP is the gold-standard evidence-based treatment that helps you gradually face fears without giving in to compulsions. ICBT is a highly effective method that works on the underlying thought patterns that keep OCD going. I tailor the approach to what works best for you.
