Whitney Dyer, DSW, LCSW-S
Being a therapist to me means having an insatiable curiosity about the human condition. I come by my specific interest in OCD and anxiety honestly. Also, self-promotion is weird.
I completed the Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI) intensive ERP training through the International OCD foundation. I was also trained by Dr. Michael Greenberg in Rumination-Focused ERP (RF-ERP)-which is a cornerstone to my approach. I would say working with mental compulsions is my specialty.
I consider myself to be a life-long learner and believe there are many ways to overcome our struggles-we are all unique! I am very curious about how anxiety occurs as a result of challenges to metabolize (emotional) experience. I tend to inquire about your past and history of dynamics, as I believe mental health is relational health. Moreover, Somatic Experiencing recently piqued my interest as a way to challenge the cerebral presentation of OCD; therefore, I’m currently in a training program for that.
I received my Master of Social Work from Texas Christian University and my Doctorate of Social Work from The University of Kentucky. In an attempt to bolster ERP efficacy, my doctoral research focused on examining the impacts of using self-compassion strategies adjunctly with ERP.
I founded OCD and Anxiety Recovery in 2022 and I’ve never questioned my line of work since. We’ve built such an amazing team.
Individuals experiencing OCD anxiety are among the most kind-hearted, compassionate, and hardworking people I’ve encountered. I find it a privilege to devote my efforts to supporting this population. My empathy is abundant!
