Whether you're experiencing intrusive thoughts, panic attacks, low self-esteem, struggling with body image, trauma symptoms, or struggling with identity, relationships, or emotional regulation, you're not alone.

Our licensed therapists specialize in treating OCD, anxiety disorders, trauma, and body image concerns using proven approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Exposure Therapy (ERP).

We work with a range of commercial insurance plans and select Medicaid providers. If you're uninsured or concerned about the cost of therapy, we offer flexible payment options, including shorter session times and sliding scale rates to help make care more accessible.
