Therapy Services
At Beyond OCD & Anxiety, we specialize in helping children, adolescents, and adults overcome OCD, anxiety, and related disorders using evidence-based approaches including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
Our approach goes beyond symptom management. Together, we'll identify the patterns keeping you stuck, develop practical skills to navigate uncertainty, and help you build a life that feels fuller, freer, and guided by your values—not by fear.
Whether you've recently begun struggling or have spent years searching for answers, therapy is tailored to your unique goals, experiences, and strengths. We believe meaningful change happens through a collaborative relationship, compassionate support, and treatments backed by decades of research.

One-on-one therapy for adults, adolescents, and older children experiencing OCD, anxiety disorders, phobias, and related concerns. Sessions are tailored to your goals while providing practical tools and lasting strategies for recovery.
-
Parents play an essential role in a child's recovery. Coaching sessions provide practical guidance to help caregivers respond to anxiety and OCD in ways that foster independence, reduce accommodation, and support lasting progress at home.
-
For current or former clients seeking additional support, booster sessions offer focused guidance during periods of increased stress, life transitions, or new challenges. These sessions reinforce treatment gains while helping you maintain confidence in applying your skills independently.

Areas of focus include Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), case conceptualization, and the thoughtful application of evidence-based interventions to complex clinical presentations.
Kate Schacterle, MSW, LISW-S
Hi, I’m Kate, I’m a licensed therapist specializing in OCD, anxiety, phobias, and related concerns. If you find yourself searching Google endlessly, asking others for reassurance, avoiding things you used to love, or living with immense fear, therapy can help. Using compassion, empowerment, collaboration, and a bit of humor, we’ll work together to move beyond anxiety and fear and toward the life you want. Whether you’re struggling with OCD, health anxiety, emetophobia, or another fear that has started to feel bigger than your life, recovery is possible.
My goal isn’t just to help you feel less anxious; it’s to help you get back to the people, experiences, and life that matter most.
I’ve served as an OCD Expert at a large healthcare organization and have spent 6+ years treating individuals with OCD and anxiety. I’d be honored to help you accomplish your goals.
