Dr. Hoffman’s treatment approach integrates cognitive behavioral therapy, exposure and response prevention, and acceptance and commitment therapy. These approaches have sound empirical support in treating OCD and related anxiety disorders. These therapeutic approaches are also valuable for children with Avoidant-Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID). Dr. Hoffman is actively continuing her education to better understand treatment of ARFID.
As Dr. Hoffman’s services and training are specialized in this area, she works primarily with children and adolescents struggling with these concerns. If you are reading this page, you are likely suspecting you or your child may be experiencing symptoms of OCD and/or anxiety. Please feel free to reach out if you have yet to receive a formal diagnosis but have a hunch about your child’s symptoms. The intake process will help us learn more about these struggles and whether Dr. Hoffman is the right provider to help.
