I’m Danielle McDowell, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in OCD, anxiety, BDD, and related conditions. I understand how exhausting it can be to feel trapped in cycles of intrusive thoughts, rumination, reassurance seeking, avoidance, and compulsions—especially when previous therapy hasn’t fully understood what you’re experiencing. My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative. I use evidence-based treatments, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), while tailoring treatment to each person’s needs. I work with all OCD themes, including relationship, harm, sexual-orientation, pedophilia-themed, religious, moral, health, contamination, “just right,” and existential OCD. My goal is to help you stop organizing your life around fear and uncertainty so you can begin moving toward the relationships, experiences, and values that matter most to you.
