Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for OCD, Body Dysmorphic Disorder, Anxiety Disorders, Skin-Picking,  and Hair-Pulling

I specialize in treating obsessive compulsive (OCD) and related disorders, such as skin-picking disorder (excoriation or "dermatillomania"), hair-pulling (trichotillomania), and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) and anxiety disorders such as generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, agoraphobia, social anxiety, and specific phobias.  I utilize evidence-based treatment methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure with Response Prevention (ERP), Habit Reversal Training (HRT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).    This is an active approach to therapy, involving you in activities designed to gradually increase your comfort in situations that are currently difficult because of anxiety.
