About

The Responsibility Disorders

I help helpers, empathic people, and caregivers who end up being so hyper-responsible that they end up serving at their own expense. I specialize with all facets of OCD, including helping family members. I help others gain life skills, especially money anxiety and management of stress. For over two years, I have a contract with NOCD. Please reach out to me at my email (edie@ediegardner.com) if you would like information on seeking NOCD treatment, potentially with your health insurance. In my practice outside of contract work, I provide Telehealth services in the state of California. I do not take insurance in my private practice because I want the freedom to incorporate lots of therapeutic interventions in my practice to those who need help, whether or not they meet the full diagnostic criteria for help.
