What are your areas of specialization?

I specialize in working with members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who deal with religious or moral OCD (also known as scrupulosity). Almost all of my clients have other symptoms in addition to scrupulosity, and I am experienced in treating the full range of OC spectrum and anxiety disorders.

Do you offer in-person or virtual sessions?

I offer virtual telehealth sessions that are conducted via secure video conference for residents of California, Utah, Arizona Idaho, Texas, Louisiana, and Florida.

Can you see clients located anywhere?

I can see clients located in California, Utah, Arizona, Idaho, Texas, Louisiana, and Florida.

How long is a therapy session, and how often do I need to go?

Therapy sessions are typically 50 minutes long. The frequency of sessions varies based on your needs and goals. Initially, weekly sessions are recommended, but we can discuss a schedule that works best for you during our first appointment.

Is therapy confidential?

Yes, therapy is confidential. Your privacy is of utmost importance, and I adhere to strict ethical and legal guidelines to protect your information. There are some exceptions, such as if you pose a danger to yourself or others, which we will discuss during our first session.

Do you do exposure therapy?

Yes, I specialize in using exposure and response prevention (ERP), which is the gold standard treatment for OCD. I have completed the International OCD Foundations’s Behavior Therapy Training Institute, which is the premier training program for ERP in the United States. I regularly combine ERP with other evidence-based treatments including acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT).

What is your cancellation policy?

If an appointment is cancelled with less than 24 hours notice, you will be charged the full cost of the session.
