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.

OCD often involves intrusive thoughts and urges to reduce anxiety through compulsions or mental rituals (including overthinking). Treatment focuses on helping you change your relationship to these thoughts and reduce compulsive behaviors, drawing from evidence-based approaches while also attending to the broader emotional context.

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/

Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a type of anxiety where people ruminate over distressing thoughts and then engage in repetitive behaviors or mental acts as a way of managing the obsessive thoughts. It can take many forms with varying levels of intensity. OCD is typically treated with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy combined with Exposure Response Prevention. We will explore the thoughts and compulsions you're experiencing and create a robust plan of changing your experience of anxiety.

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.

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.

When Your Mind Won’t Stop Looping
If you live with obsessive thoughts or repetitive behaviors, you probably already know how exhausting it can be. You might spend hours replaying what you said, checking if something bad might happen, or trying to get rid of thoughts that won’t leave you alone. Even though you know the worries aren’t logical, they still feel impossible to control. OCD isn’t about being “neat” or “organized.” It’s about anxiety that latches onto what matters most to you — your safety, your relationships, your values — and tricks your brain into thinking you need to keep checking or fixing something to feel okay.
In our work together, we’ll use a structured, evidence-based approach that combines TEAM-CBT with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) — the gold-standard treatment for OCD. You’ll learn how to:
Break free from obsessive loops by gently facing feared thoughts instead of avoiding them
Reduce compulsions and checking behaviors step by step, in a safe, guided way
Calm the anxiety that drives the urge to control or neutralize uncertainty
Understand and retrain the beliefs that keep OCD patterns alive
Build confidence in your ability to handle discomfort without giving in to rituals
Our sessions are structured, compassionate, and active. You’ll track progress weekly and practice small daily exercises that teach your brain new patterns of safety and trust. Over time, what once felt unbearable starts to lose its power.
I BELIEVE:
OCD doesn’t define you — it’s a pattern your brain learned, and it can learn new ones.
Courage isn’t the absence of fear; it’s doing what matters while fear is present.
Recovery happens one small exposure at a time, not in giant leaps.
You deserve freedom from the constant “what ifs” that steal your peace.
Humor and self-compassion are essential tools in healing — not luxuries.
Also Integrated In Our Work:
• Interpersonal Work – to strengthen connection and empower you to be yourself using The 5 Secrets of Effective Communication
• Mindful Self-Compassion – to cultivate a gentler, kinder inner voice through the work of Dr. Kristin Neff
• Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM) – to regulate the nervous system and support trauma recovery alongside cognitive tools for a well-rounded approach

San Bernardino has among the highest rates of poverty and violent crime of any California city, and its therapists frequently work with community-level trauma, economic stress, and the compounding psychological effects of systemic disinvestment — challenges that have intensified through a city bankruptcy, rising homelessness, and limited public resources. The city has a predominantly Latino and Black population, and bilingual and culturally affirming therapists serve essential access roles in communities where language barriers and financial precarity limit engagement with conventional mental health services. Arrowhead Regional Medical Center provides the primary institutional mental health anchor for San Bernardino County's most vulnerable populations, with a private therapy community serving the university and suburban corridors. California State University San Bernardino's psychology programs supply some clinical training to the region, though the Inland Empire as a whole remains significantly underserved.
