Every client begins with a thorough intake to understand what's going on and build the right plan from the start. For OCD, this includes the Y-BOCS to assess symptoms severity. For other concerns, intake includes a comprehensice biopsychosocial assessment to understand your history and current life context.
Intake
One-on-one sessions focused on understanding your symptoms, building practical exposure and response prevention skills, and moving toward a life less controlled by fear and avoidance.
