Kristel Roper LMFT, LPCC
I offer specialized OCD and anxiety treatment through one-on-one therapy as well as family therapy for parents of anxious children and teens who are unable or unwilling to attend treatment (also known as SPACE). I have worked with hundreds of individuals with OCD and related anxiety disorders at both the outpatient and intensive outpatient levels of care.
I have completed the BTTI training through the IOCDF as well as specialized training in SPACE (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions). I also received training at The Anxiety Treatment Center of Sacramento (ATC), which is operated by a former member of the IOCDF Scientific and Clinical Advisory Board. I have worked with individuals with OCD, as well as generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and specific phobias since 2015. I have expertise in using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help individuals overcome their anxiety symptoms.
I have worked with individuals from widely diverse backgrounds—including race, ethnicity, immigration status, religion, gender identity, and sexual orientation.
