About Me

Anxiety therapist

Hi, I’m Azra, a licensed social worker specializing in OCD, anxiety, and BFRBs.

I help people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, and intrusive thoughts find clarity and relief. If you’re constantly stuck in your head, battling worry, or exhausted from trying to control everything perfectly—you’re not alone, and it doesn’t have to stay this way.

How I Work

I blend practical tools with deep compassion. I use evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), tailored to your needs. Therapy with me is collaborative, supportive, and rooted in real-life strategies—not just talk. My goal is to help you build skills, increase resilience, and feel more empowered in your day-to-day life.

​

This is a space where you can be fully yourself—no judgment, no pressure to have it all figured out.

What My Clients Say

Clients often tell me they feel truly seen and understood in our work together. I bring warmth, a sense of humor, and honesty to the therapy room. You’ll get a balance of compassion and practical support—plus a gentle push when it’s needed.
