Getting to know Merlyn Matthews
I specialize in OCD and use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the most effective, evidence-based treatment for OCD. Beyond our sessions, you'll have access to ongoing support when you need it most, including direct messaging, support groups, and real-time help when OCD symptoms spike.
If you feel hesitant about starting OCD therapy, that's completely understandable. Opening up about your experiences can feel vulnerable. But you are stronger than you realize. Exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy is highly structured, but I balance evidence-based treatment with compassion and a personalized approach. I aim to create a space that feels warm, empowering, and non-judgmental, and I will truly listen to your unique story. We'll proceed at a collaborative and supportive pace. In addition to OCD, I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, and PTSD.
