Anxiety & OCD Therapist- Building a life driven by values, not fear.

I specialize in working with young adults struggling with OCD and Anxiety-related problems. Maybe your mind never seems to turn off. Maybe you’ve always been the worrier, the responsible one, the planner, or the overthinker. Perhaps intrusive thoughts leave you questioning yourself, even though they don’t reflect who you are. You replay past mistakes, imagine worst-case scenarios, and end up being far harder on yourself than you would ever be on someone else. Sometimes anxiety looks like perfectionism, people-pleasing, endless researching, checking, or seeking reassurance.

If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone, and therapy can help. I’m Haley, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who specializes in helping young adults overcome anxiety and OCD. I believe we have one wild and precious life, and I don’t want anxiety to be the main character in yours. My goal is to help you reclaim the mental space that anxiety has taken from you so you can invest it in the people and experiences that matter most.

Background

In the past five years, my work has focused on treating young adults struggling with anxiety. Prior to establishing my private practice, I gained valuable experience in these roles: Crisis Hotline Volunteer, Residential Counselor for an Anxiety Treatment Center, Integrated Behavioral Therapist at Concord Hospital, Clinical Assistant for a Short-Term Assessment Program for at-risk youth, Community Mental Health Counselor, School-based Clinician, and Intake Therapist for an Eating Disorder Recovery Program.

Approach

My approach to therapy is client-centered, relational, and organic. I offer a gentle structure, beginning with an optional guided meditation to help you settle into the session and ending with goals or intentions for the week ahead. In between, you guide our exploration of your inner world. I ask thoughtful questions, offer gentle challenges, and introduce therapeutic tools as needed. CBT, ACT, ERP, and mindfulness shape how I understand and support the people I work with.

I encourage clients to stay curious and open to new perspectives, often recommending books and podcasts that complement our work together. I emphasize goal setting to help you create meaningful change outside of our sessions. Ultimately, my hope is that therapy becomes a place where you not only find relief, but discover the confidence to build a life that’s no longer defined by anxiety.
