      <image:caption>A diagnosis of OCD or another anxiety disorder can be scary and confusing. It can feel like your life is defined by dread, worry, fear, and exhaustion. Much of your energy and time are likely spent trying to present to the outside world as “successful” and “having it all together”. Internally, you may feel disconnected from your core self, your innate purpose and potential, and the ability to enjoy simple moments in your life.   Anxiety doesn’t have to define who you are as a human.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Hello dear human. A warm welcome to you. My name is Dr. Andrea Millen. I’m a Licensed Psychologist and the founder of Courageous Roots Institute based in Portland, Oregon. Choosing such a vulnerable endeavor as therapy is not for the faint of heart. It is an act of trust and hope that things can get better. I honor the courage in you to feel rooted and expansive in your authenticity.  Through our work together, you’ll better understand your experience of OCD and anxiety, and treatment for OCD. You will learn specific ways you can improve your ability to navigate fears on a day-to-day basis that you can use for the rest of your life. Strengthening your ability to choose how you want to live your life is a core part of my approach.  If you’re looking for ways to heal your relationship to anxiety and feel more rooted in your authenticity, you’ve found the right place.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - FOUNDER, LICENSED PSYCHOLOGIST</image:title>
      <image:caption>Andrea Millen, PsyD Therapy is courageous work. I’m glad you’re here making this first step. My specialty is in working with people who experience Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), anxiety disorders (including panic, social anxiety, emetophobia), work-related stress, hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting/picking, and hoarding.  The clients I work with are diverse. I often integrate the science and art of mind-body practices as an addition to therapy. My clinical approach is rooted in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), somatic/embodiment practices and is informed by an anti-oppressive/anti-racist and pro queer/LGBTQ+ approach with a focus on my client’s strengths. Creating Courageous Roots Institute and providing speciality therapy that champions your courage is an honor and dream come true. Thank you for being here.</image:caption>
