Untethered Therapy is a calm, collaborative therapy practice in Lakeland, FL specializing in OCD, anxiety disorders, intrusive thoughts, panic, and perfectionism. I use ERP, ACT, CBT, and trauma-informed care to help you build a life that feels grounded and free.

Anxiety and OCD can feel like being tied down by fear, doubt, and endless mental loops. Untethered Therapy represents the process of loosening those knots, finding freedom from rigid patterns and creating space to live fully in line with your values.

I became a therapist because I believe deeply in the transformative power of understanding and connection. I specialize in helping clients manage anxiety and OCD through effective, research-supported methods. My goal is for each client to leave sessions feeling hopeful, supported, and capable of meaningful change.

Untethered doesn’t mean letting go of everything, it means no longer being trapped so you can move freely toward what matters most to you.
