I’m Camille, therapist and owner of Affirm + Empower Psychotherapy. I’m also a toddler mom, pop culture enthusiast, and fellow human living with OCD. Welcome :)

I love working with folks who are struggling with OCD in its many forms and flavors—including its sister conditions, panic disorder and phobias. There is something so powerful and fulfilling about helping someone learn to understand how their particular OCD brain works, and getting to walk beside + celebrate them as they face their fears and step into their strength. It is work I truly enjoy and put my heart into as a fellow OCDiva!

I use ERP (Exposure + Response Prevention therapy), the gold-standard, most evidence-based treatment for OCD with most of my clients. While this work is incredibly difficult—sitting in discomfort! “manifesting” scary things by talking about them! doing all the things you usually avoid!—it is absolutely life changing for many. And it’s also just amazing to show yourself how strong you really are!

My #1 priority with all people I work with is building a safe, trusting relationship. This foundation allows my clients to feel confident in doing the hard stuff—because we have created a safe, brave space together. And I try to encourage both of us to laugh whenever we can. Laughing at ourselves helps lighten this heavy (but also often bizarre) work of navigating OCD + ERP!

If any of this resonates, I’d love to join in this work with you!
