Specialized Therapy for PANDAS/PANS, Trauma, and OCD
Virtual therapy throughout New York State, Connecticut, and Delaware
Whether you're navigating PANDAS/PANS with your child, teen, or young adult, or seeking support for trauma or OCD yourself, you don't have to figure it out alone. I provide compassionate, evidence-informed therapy tailored to where you are and what you need.
Together, we'll determine the right place to begin—whether that's supporting your family through PANDAS/PANS, helping you heal from trauma, or treating OCD.
Does this feel familiar?
You may be here because you're supporting a child or loved one living with PANDAS/PANS—or because you're trying to heal from trauma or struggling with OCD. Either way, life may feel like it's been taken over by survival mode.
Maybe:
• Your mind and body are always on alert.
• You feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally exhausted.
• Past experiences continue to affect how safe, connected, or grounded you feel today.
• You're supporting a child with PANDAS/PANS whose moods, OCD, or rage can shift overnight.
• Your home feels unpredictable, and you're walking on eggshells.
• Intrusive thoughts, fears, or compulsions are taking up more of your life than you want them to.
You've done everything you know how to do. You've kept going, even when it's been incredibly hard.
But you're ready for life to feel steadier again.
How We Work Together
There isn't a one-size-fits-all starting point.
Every person—and every family—comes with a different story, strengths, and needs.
Together, we'll decide what will be most helpful based on where you are today.
If you're navigating PANDAS/PANS...
We'll determine where support is most needed—whether that's working directly with your child, teen, or young adult, helping your family respond more effectively to symptoms, or beginning with parent and family support.
Many families expect therapy to begin with their child. Sometimes that's exactly where we start. As treatment progresses, parents often become an increasingly important part of the healing process.
If you're seeking trauma therapy...
We'll begin by helping your nervous system feel safer and more regulated. As healing unfolds, we may use EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) to help you process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable.
If you're seeking OCD therapy...
We'll begin by understanding how OCD is showing up in your life and what may be keeping the cycle going. Treatment may include Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), along with other approaches tailored to your needs, so you can begin responding differently to intrusive thoughts, fears, and urges.
Every treatment plan is tailored to your unique situation, needs, and goals.
