Introduction

It can be frustrating to constantly consider whether or not you can do something based on anxiety rather than your own values and goals. I collaborate with you to understand the best way forward to create meaningful change in your life. My name is Rina Pesce (PESH-ay), and I am a Maryland-based clinical psychologist who specializes in the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and anxiety. For 13 years, I have been working with adults using a cognitive behavioral framework, using exposure and response prevention, self-regulation skills training, and other evidence-based interventions. I'm PsyPact-authorized to provide teletherapy to people in 28 states.
