Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
OCD is interesting in that it could have trauma based origins, physiological origins, including epigenetic, or could be an adaptive response to something that is currently challenging. First is to decipher where the origin is as best as one can, in general an integrative and functional approach may work well, as it could be based in metabolic deficiency, for example.
Shared with care: in certain cases, we have witnessed it might evolve in people or communities where power abuse is rampant -- these compulsions can set in as ways to adapt to holding maladaptive and abusive thinking and distracting a person from the inhumanity and incoherence of the abusive thinking they have been groomed to take on. This is not written about from a hegemonic perspective, however decolonizing theory will find these challenges of OCD and even paranoia heightened in people or communities that habituate enacting atrocities. This is not trauma it is an expression of intensive moral injury and benefits from interrupting the moral injury and moving the person into ethical recovery of their humanity.
Contrapositively, trauma impactees may show OCD traits as a way of the mind distracting from torture or other forms of recurring harm psychologically (e.g repeated and intensive gaslighting), physically, sexually...etc. Here we would apply a trauma based approach to care along with Havening, Brainspotting and other ways to soothe a nervous system and restore mental networks as best we can/

I work with individuals experiencing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), including intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, mental rituals, and persistent doubt. Treatment focuses on evidence-based approaches that help clients reduce the grip of obsessions, resist compulsions, and build tolerance for uncertainty, so anxiety no longer drives daily life.

Alyssa Habschmidt
Therapist, AMFT
You feel trapped in a cycle of intrusive thoughts or repetitive behaviors. Your mind feels out of control. You might replay conversations, repeat certain words or phrases, constantly check for danger, or struggle to quiet thoughts that won't go away. If you live with obsessive thoughts or repetitive behaviors, you already know how exhausting and draining it can be. Even though you know the worries aren't logical, they still feel consuming and impossible to control.
OCD often develops as a way to cope with deeper fears, emotions, or unresolved experiences. The thoughts and behaviors may serve as an attempt to create safety, certainty, or relief from emotional discomfort—even if they ultimately leave you feeling stuck or fearful.
Together, we will help you gain clarity and understand your fears. From understanding, you can then move forward with self-awareness and develop greater autonomy in how you react to your thoughts and feelings. You gain greater control over your mind, hence allowing you to shift your behavior and break free from the obsessive thinking and repetitive behaviors. I provide a warm, safe, and collaborative space to explore your relationship to OCD and help you gain relief from it.

Eve Angela Fritsch
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A.
OCD is more than being organized or liking things a certain way. It can involve unwanted thoughts, persistent doubt, and compulsive behaviors that become exhausting. Therapy can help you better understand OCD, reduce its hold on your life, and regain a sense of freedom in your thoughts.

Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a control issue that is used to compensate for the fact that a person feels completely out of control. This disorder can have physiological consequences that can cause physical harm and results in lower seratonin levels in the body. As we support you in reducing anxiety and stresses and increasing your sense of control over multiple aspects of your life, you can begin to experience a reduction in your OCD tendencies and/or find it easier to manage them.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Obsessive-compulsive patterns often involve intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that can feel difficult to control. I work with individuals to understand the underlying anxiety and internal pressure driving these cycles, rather than only focusing on symptom reduction. Therapy supports increased awareness, greater tolerance for uncertainty, and more flexibility in responding to distressing thoughts and urges.

Louisa Lombard
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC, LPCC, PPS
OCD can be mild to debilitating, and is often missed and treated as anxiety. I've found that OCD and Health Anxiety, as well as Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs, ie. skin picking, hair pulling/tweezing, nail/cuticle biting) can sometimes co-exist together. I'm trained in treating OCD through two of the primary evidence based OCD treatment modalities -Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP/ExRP). I-CBT is a newer evidence based treatment for OCD that focuses on gaining certainty versus pushing yourself into uncertainty, and is thought to be a gentler approach. There are many types of OCD and the thought-based "invisible" types are the most often missed forms of OCD, often called the "Pure O subtype" meaning that the obsessions/thoughts are there, but that the compulsions are mental and not outwardly visible, as we've come to expect from what we see about OCD in the media/social media. There are many forms of OCD, including Postpartum OCD, Relational (romantic as well as platonic) OCD, Harm OCD, Perfectionism/Just Right OCD, Contamination OCD, Scrupulosity or Religious OCD, Checking OCD, Obsessional OCD, Sexual Orientation OCD, Pedophilia OCD, and Superstitious OCD, among others. I'm trained in treating BFRBs using multiple modalities including, Habit Reversal Training, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Comprehensive Model for the Behavioral Treatment of BFRB and DBT, which help to reduce the symptoms of BFRBs.

Jennifer Bearden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When unwanted thoughts and compulsions take over, you lose precious energy and freedom. We'll work to change your relationship with these intrusive thoughts, helping you see them as just thoughts, not facts, so they lose their grip. Through a "parts work" approach, we will gently explore the underlying function of the OCD—often driven by protective, highly-concerned "parts" seeking safety—to help them relax their extreme roles. You'll learn how to accept discomfort without acting on the compulsion, choosing instead to commit to actions aligned with your truest self. Our goal is to shift your focus from constant struggle to meaningful living.
