Question about specific therapist treating health anxiety

Are any of you familiar with John Pavco in Washington DC? He seems to be the one OCD/ERP therapist near us who has BTTI certification AND lists health anxiety as one of his top areas. This seems like it might be a good fit for our daughter Lynn, but I want to at least do due diligence first and hear from anyone who has had him as a therapist, or who knows someone else who has. Thanks.

Thank you for being an excellent advocate for your daughter. Your dedication in trying to find her appropriate care is commendable. I personally haven’t heard of John Pavco but his having BTTI certification is a really good sign. BTTI offers introductory training as well as advanced training so keep that in mind. His assessment should include what level of care your daughter needs.
