OCD Therapy in NYC for Adults who want Relief from the Endless Loop of Doubt, Fear and Anxiety

You experience thoughts that are unwanted and are not in line with who you are. Ruminating is keeping you stuck in your head and feeling unsafe in your own skin. You fear your own thoughts and feel compelled to engage in repetitive behaviors or mental rituals in order to reassure doubt, yet you never feel any real relief.

If you are looking to feel more present in your body and want to learn how to sit with uncertainty, then you are in the right place! Here, you will learn to face your fears at your own pace, in a safe and supported environment. Together, we will explore all of the ways that OCD and Anxiety are impacting your life.

Does this sound familiar?

→ You’re tired of…OCD and Anxiety running your life.

→ You feel…like things will always feel this difficult and that you’ll never find any real, lasting relief.

→ It’s hard to…let go of your thoughts and not feel completely reactive to your emotions.

→ How you feel…like you are not able to make meaningful connections in the way you would like to because of fear of not being understood or for fear that those around you would judge you harshly if they ever knew your thoughts.

→ It is too…exhausting to feel like a prisoner of your own mind.

Your OCD and Anxiety Therapist in NYC and throughout NY state

Welcome!

My name is Angela. I help adults who feel like OCD and Anxiety have taken over their lives and made their world so much smaller. I help people find inner peace, learn to trust themselves and sit with uncertainty rather than responding to each and every thought/emotion as fact. I help people feel more grounded, and safer in their own body.

This work is very personal to me. I have a deep understanding and insight into how OCD and Anxiety can be totally consuming, and just how much it can impact every area of your life. I have so much compassion for how it can feel like you will never escape the throws of OCD and anxiety and never be able to feel any kind of peace. This lived experience helps me to not only understand from a “clinical” perspective, but from a personal level, as well.

I believe that you can learn to live life differently and not be captive to your thoughts. I feel strongly that healing can happen at your own pace, where you feel safe and supported each and every step of the way! I believe you can learn to feel more comfortable in your own body and help you to live life on your own terms and be more present.
