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.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), my treatment approach is tailored to address the unique symptoms and challenges experienced by each individual. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), particularly exposure and response prevention (ERP), I work collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. By gradually exposing individuals to feared stimuli while refraining from engaging in compulsions, we aim to reduce anxiety and disrupt the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Additionally, I incorporate mindfulness techniques and acceptance-based strategies to help clients develop a more adaptive relationship with uncertainty and discomfort. Psychoeducation plays a crucial role in enhancing understanding of OCD and building skills for long-term management. My goal is to empower individuals to regain control over their lives, reduce OCD symptoms, and improve overall quality of life.

Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) traps you in a cycle of repetitive thoughts and behaviors, stealing moments of peace and creating barriers to living freely. The constant battle with uncertainty and the need for control can feel overwhelming, as if your own mind is both your sanctuary and prison. My specialized OCD treatment offers a pathway out, equipping you with strategies to break free from these cycles, regain control, and embrace the spontaneity of life with confidence.

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.
