What We Offer

We aim to help therapists become confident and effective in treating anxiety disorders, OCD, and related disorders through the flexible and integrative application of evidence‑based approaches. With expertise in synthesizing Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with Exposure and Response Prevention, we offer clinical consultation, training, and continuing education to empower your practice.

If you’re a clinician who wants to deepen your skills, refine your case conceptualization, and deliver more meaningful results for clients with OCD, anxiety, worry, and related presentations, we’re here to support you.
