About
My therapy journey began with a curiosity about human resilience and a desire to help others find strength in the face of life’s challenges.
I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 26 years of experience in the mental health field. I have worked with clients in both outpatient and inpatient settings who are experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological concerns, including varying levels of emotional distress. My approach is grounded in creating a supportive and collaborative therapeutic environment.
I earned my master’s degree in social work from the University of Pittsburgh. I utilize evidence-based approaches tailored to each client’s needs, including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, mindfulness-based techniques, and solution-focused therapy to support emotional regulation and coping skills.
I believe therapy works best as a collaborative process where you feel heard, supported, and empowered. I look forward to partnering with you to help you reach your goals and improve your overall well-being. I invite you to schedule an initial session when you are ready to begin.

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.
In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Berkeley therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.
Thriveworks OCD counseling in Berkeley, CA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.
