Dr. Eli Penela - Anxiety and OCD Treatment Expert
When mental health challenges come up, it is ideal to see a therapist who specializes in the specific challenge you are facing. Just like we see specialists for medical care (we don't see a neurologist if we're having problems with our heart!), it's helpful to do the same when navigating mental health concerns.
I have specialized training and expertise in helping teens and adults tackle challenges related to anxiety, OCD, and related issues. I exclusively work in these areas of specialty because it is where I know I can be of most help.
And of course, for many - anxiety and OCD do not quite capture everything! You may also be struggling with depression, body image concerns, attentional difficulties, or perhaps significant challenges with your physical health. In our work together you will learn learned science-backed tools to help you cope with each of these issues.
Therapy for Parents
I also have an area of specialty in working with parents of children (young children, teens, and adult children) who struggle with anxiety, OCD, and related concerns. I help parents make the necessary mindset changes AND learn the specific skills needed to confidently and effectively support their children in learning to navigate anxiety.
