Lose the Weight of Responsibility. Quiet the Mind Clutter of OCD.
Navigate Your Well-Being with …
OCD Counseling & Psychotherapy
The most responsible people need support! I’m a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to helping the helpers. My counseling practice focuses on those who have OCD and related disorders, those who are affected by loved ones with mental health issues, caregivers, and stress and anxiety management.
Business & Personal Money Coaching
Helping the helpers is what fuels me. Private practitioners in a helping profession can learn how to thrive in their practices. I work with entrepreneurs in managing the accounting books of their practices and organizing finances for peace of mind. Accounting is so much more than taxes. A business owner needs to know their numbers in order to thrive.

If being responsible feels very heavy and you have the weight of the world on your shoulders, you might be a “Responsible.” Get your free copy to see if you carry too much responsibility:

Let’s Work Together
For “Responsibles” interested in psychotherapy and counseling services:
“All roads lead to OCD.” That was my response to a counseling client who wasn’t sure if her distress was OCD related or not. My psychotherapy practice is focused on helping those who are the “Responsibles.” That is my term for those who are serving others at the expense of their own health and fulfillment and who need support. My niche is helping those with OCD, family members of OCD sufferers, caregivers, codependents, those in life transitions, and those who are grieving.
I use a variety of treatment approaches. For OCD, the initial treatment is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Once those tools are learned, I incorporate CBT tools to address core limited beliefs. Responsibles, with or without OCD, may have adopted some responsibility beliefs that have prevented them from serving where they feel called to serve with their own individual talents and where they want to serve. Yes, investing in where you want to serve is allowed.
For “Responsibles” who have private practices and want to thrive with organized financial books:
If you have your own practice and want help to manage the books of your business, you are in the right place! This is the process: We have a one-hour consultation where we first address your questions. Then, as the self-proclaimed Queen of Questions, I have a whole set of my own business areas to explore with you. If my recommendation is to implement an accounting system, I strongly recommend working with QuickBooks Online (QBO). You will help me to know if you want to be a “Happy Camper #1”, where I teach you how to work in your books and then you maintain your books monthly with periodic support from me; or “Happy Camper #2”, where I manage your books WITH YOU in Zoom meetings to watch my process, for me to ask you questions, and for us to review your income statement for the prior month and year-to-date. One big difference in how I work versus other QuickBooks accountants is that I am working on your books in our meeting. My process is very efficient because there is no hold up while we connect to get questions answered, and you are getting up-to-date numbers in real time. Another big difference is that I am a social worker through and through. My heart is in this work, and with my own counseling practice, I know how stressful this work can be and what issues you face on a day-to-day business. In my work with OCD clients, we say that it’s tough to shock us with stories of intrusive thoughts. That’s how I feel about money issues, too. There is so much shame about what you don’t know, but seriously, how are you to know how to work in your books when you’ve never received formal instruction?
For anyone interested in working with me:
My rule is that if you have to jump through many websites or answer a zillion questions before learning a business’ prices, some manipulations are likely happening. My 2026 rate to work with me is $200/hour. I do not take insurance in my psychotherapy practice, especially because I want the freedom to practice as I’ve learned what works best.
