Anxiety and OCD

down arrow, signaling to move down the page

When your mind won't stop scanning for what could go wrong, everything takes more effort.

Anxiety can show up as constant worry, a racing body, sleepless nights, or a quiet sense that you're always bracing for something. OCD can look like intrusive thoughts that feel impossible to shake, or rituals and checking that eat up hours of your day. Therapy can be a space to understand what's driving it and to make room for the life you actually want.

We work with adolescents and adults experiencing generalized anxiety, panic, social anxiety, health anxiety, and OCD. Our approach blends evidence-based tools with deeper, psychodynamic work, so you get relief now and an understanding of the patterns underneath. Sessions are collaborative and paced to you, never pushed past what you're ready for.

Therapy for Anxiety and OCD can support goals like:

  • Understanding what triggers your anxiety and what allows it to persist

  • Calming your body when feeling panic, overwhelm, or dread

  • Loosening the grip of intrusive thoughts, checking, and reassurance-seeking

  • Reducing avoidance so your world gets bigger, not smaller

  • Quieting perfectionism, overthinking, and harsh self-criticism

  • Building coping tools you can actually use between sessions

How we approach Anxiety and OCD:

  • Combine practical, skills-based tools with insight into the roots of your anxiety

  • Treat intrusive thoughts with curiosity, not shame or alarm

  • Move at a pace that feels challenging but manageable

  • Focus on what you want your life to look like, not just symptom reduction

  • Stay attentive to how identity, stress, and life circumstances shape anxiety

  • Collaborate with psychiatrists or other providers when medication is part of your care
