Cher Alter
She/Her
Licensed Therapist, MSW, LCSW
About
I've seen OCD affect family members and close friends, so I want to do my part as a therapist to help individuals who are struggling. We'll identify your specific OCD thoughts and behaviors, gradually exposing you to triggers while helping you resist compulsions. I encourage mindfulness and self-compassion to manage anxiety and build resilience. The goal is to empower you to understand your OCD better and develop effective coping strategies, all at your pace. I also specialize in treating eating disorders, trauma, anxiety and depression, bipolar, and borderline personality disorder.
