About
My approach to OCD is to be as empathetic as possible. During the treatment process, we will start with psychoeducation, so you'll be aware of all aspects of treatment and the primary treatment modality: Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). It isn't an easy process, but it's well worth the journey. OCD is highly treatable, and ERP can lead to a marked reduction in symptoms. I've also treated major depressive disorder (MDD) and anxiety for more than 20 years. I've seen people make significant progress when a collaborative approach is used.
