The Anxiety and OCD Clinic

Helping kids, teens, adults and those struggling in all perinatal stages with anxiety and OCD. Anxiety and OCD treatment is my passion!

I love seeing how life changing it can be when someone gets high-quality, evidence based treatment. It's truly a game changer. I am a certified Diplomate in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) through the Academy of Cognitive Therapy. I am also a certified consultant and trainer through the Academy. I work with my clients to develop concrete, attainable goals, teach them what I know about feelings and guide them to learn and use strategies that really work.

Calling all child therapists...

http://www.childtherapisthub.com/

You’ve got the training. You understand exposure-based treatment.
But sometimes, you still find yourself scrambling before a session wondering,
“How can I make this fun today?" or "Am I on the right track here?"

That’s why I created the Child Therapist Hub—
a growing library of creative, practical tools for working with kids and teens with anxiety and OCD.

Inside the Hub, you’ll find:
✅ An organized platform of resources that are easy to find right before a session
✅ Materials based in exposure-based CBT so you know you can trust you are following the evidence
✅ Session-ready visuals, worksheets, and videos
✅ Exposure library coming soon!
✅Monthly support!
✅ New content added regularly

No more reinventing the wheel or scrambling to find that one idea you saw six months ago.
Just clear, engaging materials that help you do your best work—without burning out.

Join the Hub and turn your knowledge into confidence. http://www.childtherapisthub.com/

Meet Madeline — one of our compassionate therapists at The Anxiety and OCD Clinic.

Madeline specializes in supporting parents, or people wanting to be parents, through the perinatal period, including during fertility challenges, pregnancy, postpartum, and early parenting. She understands how overwhelming it can be to navigate intrusive thoughts, anxiety spirals, or the pressure to “enjoy every moment” when your mind won’t slow down.

With advanced training in perinatal anxiety and OCD, Madeline provides evidence-based care in a warm, validating space. Whether you're afraid to be alone with your baby, constantly checking for signs of danger, or just not feeling like yourself — you’re not broken. You’re not alone. And with support, you can feel like yourself again.

Kids with anxiety sensitivity fear physiological sensations that remind them (or are a result of) anxiety. This fear causes even more anxiety, a hyperfocus on sensations, and growing problems with avoidance or safety seeking actions to feel better.

For example, a kid may be playing a game in PE class, notice their heart racing, and think "Oh, no! Am I ok? Am I getting anxious?"

Or, a kid may be about to give a presentation in class and notice their palms are sweaty. They may think, "oh, no! I am getting anxious! People are going to notice and I am going to get made fun of."

Do you know a kid (or an adult) with anxiety sensitivity? How do they cope?

Through the SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) program, she guides parents in learning how to reduce accommodations, stay steady during their child’s distress, and build lasting resilience in the whole family.

If you’re feeling stuck in cycles of reassurance, avoidance, or constant worry — you are not alone. Lauren works alongside you to create a new path forward, one that actually helps your child feel braver and more confident in the long run.

💡The key to raising a child who can face their fears?

✨Foster compassion and curiosity — not fear and avoidance.

When your child feels anxious, it’s tempting to protect them from discomfort. But real resilience is built when we teach them to get curious about their feelings and compassionate with themselves — even in hard moments.

👉 The next time anxiety shows up, ask:
“What are you noticing in your body?”
“What might happen if we lean in instead of avoid?”

Little by little, this mindset shift changes everything. 🌱

Meet Angela — founder of The Anxiety and OCD Clinic and a mom who deeply understands the emotional toll of watching your child struggle.

Angela is a seasoned therapist with advanced training in anxiety and OCD treatment for children, teens, and parents. She’s also a certified SPACE provider, guiding caregivers through a proven approach to reduce accommodations and foster true resilience in their kids.

What makes Angela’s work so powerful is how she blends expert clinical skills with real-life parent perspective. She gets how hard it is to watch your child panic at school drop-off, ask for reassurance 100 times a day, or refuse to do things they used to love. And she knows the courage it takes as a parent to respond differently — even when it's hard.

Angela works with both kids and parents to break the cycle of anxiety using exposure-based CBT, SPACE, and a whole lot of compassion. Her goal? To help your family feel less stuck, more confident, and finally on a path toward lasting change.
