Liviu Bunaciu PhD

I work at the Anxiety & OCD Treatment Services (AOTS) and the Pacific Northwest Behavior Therapy (PNWBT) where I provide state-of-the-art evidence-based telemental health treatments for adults (in Washington & Iowa) suffering from OCD, anxiety disorders, and related conditions (e.g., BFRBs, BDD, illness anxiety, insomnia, tics). The treatments I offer include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Prolonged Exposure (PE), CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I), and Habit-Reversal Training (HRT). I’m flexible about the duration (45-120 min) and frequency of appointments and I conduct “exposure field trips” outside of the office (e.g., in the home or community, driving) as necessary.

I completed my undergraduate training at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. I earned my PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Arkansas and completed my pre-doctoral internship at the Alpert Medical School of Brown University. I completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the Houston OCD Program, and worked at specialty anxiety centers in Seattle, WA and Eugene, OR for 6 years before joining the AOTS, and recently opening up PNWBT. Throughout my career, I focused on providing treatment for OCD and related conditions in a variety of settings including specialty anxiety clinics, a residential treatment center, and a VA medical center.
