Katyana Gradler

LCSW

Hello! I’m Kat. I specialize in the treatment of OCD and social anxiety with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I also treat Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs) using an eclectic evidenced-based approach including Habit Reversal Training (HRT).

If you are newly diagnosed or looking for a diagnosis, I can help you understand, navigate and identify how these experiences fit in your life.  I am open minded and will bring compassion, curiosity, and non-judgment to our relationship.

Much of life is experimentation, and that is also true in therapy.  I work with individuals on mindfulness and awareness of sensations, emotions, urges and thoughts. I utilize principles from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) as well as Radically Open DBT including radical acceptance, radical openness and self inquiry. I will identify emotions, thoughts and behaviors that are no longer working for you, and help you figure out how you would like to try to change them.
