Dr. Sarah Kertz is a dedicated psychologist who specializes in assisting women grappling with OCD. She understands the toll OCD takes on one's life, often leaving individuals feeling trapped in a cycle of worry, rumination, and repetitive thoughts. Those struggling with OCD might find themselves devoting excessive time to manage anxiety through overthinking, endless internet searches, meticulous planning, ruminating on past events, or compulsive cleaning. Unwanted thoughts can be especially distressing, often scary or difficult to discuss, and many may have faced anxiety for a long time, which may have recently intensified. Her comprehensive experience stems from earning her PhD in 2011, followed by advanced training at McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School, where she honed her skills at the renowned OCD Institute. Dr. Kertz also spent eight years as an associate professor in a psychology department, educating doctoral students on evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) tailored for anxiety and OCD. She recognizes the immense courage it takes for individuals to reach out for help, particularly when confronting fears that feel overwhelming. If you believe Dr. Kertz aligns with your needs, she welcomes a conversation to explore how she can support you on your journey towards healing.
