Practical details, stated plainly.

The first sessions are an evaluation: a careful look at what you're experiencing, how it developed, and what you want back. From there, we define concrete treatment goals together and agree on a plan — including where sessions should happen and roughly how long the episode of treatment is expected to take.

Exposure means approaching — gradually and deliberately — the situations, sensations, or thoughts that anxiety has taught you to avoid. It is done collaboratively, step by step, at a pace agreed together. Nothing is sprung on you and nothing is forced. It is among the most effective and well-researched treatments in all of mental health care.

Treatment here is organized as a time-limited episode. The length depends on the condition and your goals, but the intent is always the same: to end — deliberately, when the work is done — with your functioning restored and skills in hand to maintain it.

Sessions are available via teletherapy. When clinically indicated, treatment moves to where the difficulty lives: home visits for agoraphobia, and community-based exposure work for OCD and phobias.
