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.

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.

OCD can be paralyzing and hijack your life. Skills from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help you change your relationship to obsessive thoughts and channel your behaviors toward living your values more fully.
