Our Values

Our Values

Our Values

Trust

Our ability to help you is dependent on your trust for us. It is our aim as your therapist to earn your trust through transparency, genuiness, and total commitment to your care.

Privacy

We strictly adhere to HIPAA laws to ensure your confidentiality and privacy. We are well versed in these laws and exercise great caution in enforcing them.

​

Compassion

We are people who deeply care about and connect with the people we treat. You are so much more than a list of symptoms. You will feel heard, understood, and taken care of.

Specialized Care

Our training and experience has enabled us to provide you with the knowledge and skills necessary to help you overcome your OCD and anxiety disorders and get back to living life the way you want.

Customized Care

You are a unique individual with unique challenges and need treatment that reflects that. While there are patients who only need 50 minutes, once per week, We recognize that there are many that need more time. We have set up our practice to accommodate patients who need more intensive work.

Access to Care

We will make every effort to provide you with care within your budget. We designate times for low fee therapy for patients who could not access care otherwise.

Behavioral Science

We exclusively use treatments and methods that have undergone rigorous scientific research regarding their efficacy. We regularly attend conferences and review research to keep up to date on advances within cognitive behavioral therapy.

Not sure how to start?

Sometimes the hardest part is to begin the process. We're here to find the right solution for your child.
