OCD therapists in Beach Park, Illinois IL
Jane Bennett-Elias
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC
I have worked for many years with clients who have obsessive compulsive disorder. OCD is more than what people sometimes think of when they think of OCD behaviors. Sometimes OCD is about your thought process. I use evidenced based practices to treat OCD, including exposure response prevention (ERP) therapy.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
OCD can feel limiting and time-consuming. Facing OCD can increase life satisfaction. We can use exposure therapy principles to help you break unhelpful cycles of behaviors that never fully do what they promise - bring peace. Learning to distinguish between obsessions and compulsions is an important first step, followed by building skills to be with discomfort (rather than driven to reduce discomfort) and take action toward meaningful life goals.

Jenn Aardsma
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, CST, NCC
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder can cause a person to have intrusive thoughts and intense fears that lead to repetitive behaviors. This can interfere with daily life. These thoughts and behaviors can be managed by gaining an understanding of where they come from and learning new tools to minimize the symptoms.
