CONSULTATION

You are doing the work. Your clients deserve care that actually works. Most training programs do not teach ERP. That is not a reflection on you. It is a gap that consultation can close.

According to a 2025 International OCD Foundation report analyzing over 10 million patient records, OCD is one of the most underdiagnosed and undertreated conditions. They found that over 80% of actual OCD cases were never clinically diagnosed. Of those who are diagnosed, only 2% received ERP, the gold standard treatment for OCD. Over 72% of those diagnosed with OCD were never even referred for ERP or CBT. Taken together, many clinicians are not properly diagnosing OCD, providing effective treatment, or referring clients for the care they need.

Continued training and consultation for providers is not optional. It is how we close that treatment gap and ensure clients get effective diagnosis and treatment.

Many clinicians are currently working with clients with OCD without specialized ERP training or knowing which treatments can exacerbate OCD symptoms. Many have never been taught what exposure therapy is or how to use exposure therapy with anxiety and OCD clients. Some therapists have avoided exposure therapy for fear of seeing clients in distress. That avoidance is often what keeps clients stuck. If you have a client who is not getting better despite consistent therapy, the missing piece is almost always exposure work.

Who This Is For

You are a licensed therapist working with clients who have OCD, anxiety, perfectionism, people pleasing, panic, or phobias such as emetophobia. You want to learn ERP and ACT or deepen your existing ERP and ACT skills. You have a complex case you want a specialist's perspective on. You are an associate whose supervisor or practice does not have specialized OCD and ERP training. You are committed to evidence-based care and want to do this work well.

This is not supervision for pre-licensure. It is expert case consultation.

What We Work On

Consultation goes beyond OCD. If you are working with any of the following, consultation can sharpen your work significantly:

OCD presentations of any kind: Pure O, harm OCD, scrupulosity, responsibility OCD, relationship OCD, health OCD, perinatal OCD

Generalized anxiety and worry

Panic disorder

Phobias

Perfectionism and people pleasing with anxiety driving the pattern

Any presentation where avoidance is maintaining the anxiety loop and exposure work is indicated

What Consultation Looks Like

Individual Case Consultation

One-on-one consultation for licensed therapists and associates who already have an established supervisor. We will review your client's presentation, assess whether ERP is indicated, troubleshoot what is and is not working, and develop a concrete plan for moving the treatment forward. Consultations can include role plays so you can practice delivering exposures, handling reassurance seeking, and building your confidence in the room before you are back with your client.

Group Consultation

A small group consultation experience for clinicians who want to learn ERP and ACT in a collaborative setting. Members share complex cases, give and receive peer feedback, and have space to ask questions about OCD and ERP best practices. Whether you have years of experience or are just starting to learn ERP, group consultation is a useful and affordable way to sharpen your clinical work.

Why Consult With Me

I completed a postdoctoral fellowship specifically in OCD treatment and hold BTTI certification through the International OCD Foundation, one of the most rigorous training pathways for OCD specialists. I am one of a small number of psychologists in New York City with this level of specialized OCD training.

I have worked with a wide range of OCD and anxiety presentations and I am genuinely curious about the clinical puzzles that complex cases present. I will be direct with you about what I am seeing. I will give you concrete, actionable feedback you can take back to your client immediately. And I will help you build the kind of clinical confidence in ERP and ACT that comes from having someone who has done this work in your corner.

Your clients deserve ERP done well. Let's make sure you can give them that.
