Meet Dr. Schwartz

Dr Jonathan Schwartz

I am passionate about my work with people and families working through OCD, Panic, Phobias, Social Anxiety and Perfectionism.  While many therapists can be compassionate toward their clients without giving their clients the skills to meet and beat these challenges and others can claim expertise in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) or Cognitive Restructuring, but treat the conditions instead of working with the people, I believe that to successfully work with people suffering with different anxieties you need both.  When you work with me, we work together to successfully understand the subtleties of your anxiety, and how to to teach and apply  the most up to date, science-based skills as applied to YOU. We work together to encourage and support YOU and your loved ones as you are facing your fears, and engender and earn your trust and build on it with results.  I am ready to guide and support you on your journey towards transcending your fears and anxieties!”
