The easiest way to exhaust your brain?

Keep doing the same thing again and again even if it doesn’t work.

(DM me or comment OVERTHINK for a free quiz that will help you break free from all this mess 💪)

You think you just need to ask ONE MORE TIME. You need to check JUST TO BE SURE. I get it, you really feel like this will help you be able to close the book and move on.

But you won’t be satisfied, because you’re not looking for an answer. You’re looking for 100% certainty.

Which doesn’t exist.

I teach you how to be okay with things you CAN achieve - like trust, faith, and confidence. Not certainty which is a chase you’ll be engaging in forever… if you want.

But if you don’t want to spend the rest of your life spinning wheels?

Let me help.

Your job isn’t to make anxiety or panic better. Or to go away. Or to get rid of it.

Your job, actually?

Is to focus on not making it worse.

Panic is anxiety about anxiety. Anxiety sensitivity. The catastrophic misinterpretation of what will happen if you’re anxious.

ANXIETY ABOUT ANXIETY.

Deep breathing. Meditation. Ice packs. None of that will help in the long term if you’re not also doing the crucial work of addressing your anxiety about anxiety.

Fix THAT problem. So the panic CAN’T happen.

DM me or comment the word PANIC for *exactly* what I’ve used with therapy clients since 2008, and what I’ve done to help myself stay out of this panic vortex myself since 2020.

I’ll send you info on Rise Above Panic: Your 10 Episode Guide to Crushing 10/10 Anxiety - my new guide that’ll make it so you never Google “panicking plz help” at 2 am ever again. 💪

DM me or comment the word SCRIPTS for 10 more free scripts to use to get outta the rabbit hole!

Ever struggle with what to DO or SAY when you’re in the thick of resisting a compulsion?

Here are some scripts you can use to help you get through the tough moments, and some more below.

“This sucks but so does having continued and worsening OCD and anxiety.”

“I can handle feeling anxious.”

“My body has a built in system that is built entirely to help me calm down on its own. All I need to do is not interrupt that process.”

Remember, resisting compulsions is a gradual process and it’s okay to start small. By using these scripts and committing to resisting your compulsions, you can make progress towards a life free from OCD’s grip.

Let me know which one below you’re going to keep with you today - and DM me “masterclass” for more help on resisting rituals and getting your bad ass life back!

Overthinkers, get ready to happy dance.

You know those nights when your brain feels like a broken record—endlessly looping on the “what-ifs,” “did I,” and “should I”? And you think, “If only I could shut this thing off for five minutes.”

…But instead, you find yourself mentally analyzing every detail, replaying conversations, Googling symptoms (again), and wondering if there’s something fundamentally wrong with your brain (the literal worst).

Well, I’ve got just the thing. A FREE quiz: What Mental Compulsion Is Holding You Back?

This free quiz is PERFECTLY designed for anyone who’s stuck in mental overdrive and ready to break free from the spiral of overthinking.

Because here’s the thing: It’s not about “fixing” your brain—it’s about understanding what’s fueling your mental loops and learning to respond differently. And that’s where this quiz comes in.

Here’s what’s inside:
→ A breakdown of the 6 most common mental compulsions (and which one might be holding you back the most).
→ Tips to help you take your first steps toward freedom from the endless mental spiral.
→ Bonus: Additional free resources to keep the momentum going.

If you’ve been stuck in the overthinking Olympics and are so ready to reclaim your time and mental energy, this is your moment.

DM me or comment the word OVERTHINK for your link to the quiz.

The issue with “processing your thoughts” 👇

(But first, DM me or comment the word OVERTHINKING and I’ll send you a link to my new, free quiz that’ll identify how you’re stuck, why you’re stuck, and what the F to do about it)

There’s a time and place where, sure, you need to let the thoughts settle. Let them be there. That’s good, that’s actually what I want for you.

What I don’t want is for you to chase certainty - desperately and urgently - through dysfunctional processes that end up like a 16 point turn (lots of effort going nowhere). Things like replaying old conversations, analyzing things to death, etc.

It feels like you’re getting close to an answer - I get it and I’ve been there . But the power move is in dropping the rope, and not fighting it at all, whatsoever, in the first place.

I can help you get there.

(But wait - DM me or comment OVERTHINK for a free quiz to learn how and why you get brain stuck + what the F to do about it)

I get it, you want to logic your way out of it and be rational. Because anxiety is often irrational and this is what you’ve been fed for years.

Unfortunately when it comes to OCD and anxiety, these strategies don’t work because there will always be one more “but what if?”.

Anxiety and intrusive thoughts exist in our imagination. Even if they’re based on realities or could-be realities, they are made up in our minds.

And what’s in our mind will always be more creative and more expansive than what exists in logic or any sense of rationality.

That’s why arguing with your thoughts or trying to think or talk your way out of it backfires and you stay stuck.

Instead? You learn the spiral. In and out. You master the tools needed to stop the spiral before it even starts. You get ahead of your opponent (anxiety, OCD), and you win the game.

Where to start? I’m here to help 🤓 I’m a licensed therapist and I’ve been specializing in OCD, anxiety, and intrusive thoughts since 2008.

DM me or comment the word OVERTHINK for a free quiz that’ll tell you how you get stuck, why you get stuck, and how to break free.

And I will enjoy every minute (I don’t know if there’s really an excuse to do this at this point)

DM me or comment the word STRATEGIES for a free video with 5 strategies from a licensed therapist (who’s been working with people who have OCD/anxiety since 2008) ✋

Because distraction worked, would you really need to keep doing it?

And because honestly OCD and anxiety have been running the show for way too long and it’s time to pull the plug.
