I work with people experiencing a range of anxiety disorders. These include panic disorder, agoraphobia, social phobia, driving phobias, and elevator, bridge, insect, and other phobias. I also treat generalized anxiety (excessive worry) and obsessive-compulsive disorder, including scrupulosity, excessive washing, hoarding, excessive straightening, and other forms of OCD.
