Cognitive Behavioral Therapy training as an Associate on the McLean Hospital Cognitive Behavior Therapy Unit, a Harvard Medical School affiliate, anchors the anxiety and OCD practice that Shirley Babior, LCSW, LMFT runs from a Falcon Street office in Mission Hills. Exposure and Response Prevention protocols draw on International OCD Foundation continuing education and the same evidence base used at neighboring ERP specialty offices, among them Eating Disorder & OCD Therapy San Diego. The published self-help title Overcoming Panic, Anxiety & Phobias, co-authored with Carol Goldman, LICSW and printed by Whole Person Press, doubles as between-session homework that structures the cognitive behavioral protocols used in treatment. Combined-care cases pair Babior's CBT and ERP work with medication management handled by prescribing psychiatrists nearby, with frequent coordination into Dr. Kai MacDonald - Psychiatrist/Psychotherapist, since the LCSW and LMFT credentials do not carry prescribing authority in California. The women-owned California-licensed practice now operates as a statewide telehealth provider, billing fee-for-service with superbill documentation for out-of-network reimbursement. The longest treatment engagements involve graduated ERP exposure hierarchies for severe obsessive-compulsive disorder and combined panic-with-agoraphobia presentations, where in-vivo exposure work runs across many months of structured between-session assignments.
