Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Obsessive – Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a condition that involves unwanted intrusive thoughts, images or urges. As a result, individuals with OCD feel driven to reduce the distress they experience by engaging in compulsions. I utilized evidence-based therapy including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT and I-CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness methods to help clients struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Illness Anxiety, and co-occuring conditions. Breaking the overthinking, avoidance and rumination cycle is possible.

Annette Popernik
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
OCD is a companion. It accompanies us, even when we don't want it to. Sometimes we have rumination and spiraling thoughts that don't go away. (obsession) and we feel that doing a particular thing or thinking a particular thing over and over (compulsion) will make it better. It's okay to struggle with this cycle. You are not bad or flawed. You struggle with OCD. I am highly experienced in exposure and response prevention therapy to help manage OCD. Let's talk about it.

Jason Herr
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I help individuals build a stronger and more stable sense of self-worth. Drawing on extensive clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, depression, trauma, personality dynamics, and life transitions across community mental health and private practice settings—I support clients in identifying patterns of self-criticism, perfectionism, and self-doubt that interfere with growth. Together, we develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and emotional resilience so clients can approach relationships, work, and personal goals with a stronger sense of identity and self-trust.

I work collaboratively with clients to understand how obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors affect their lives.

OCD
Bergen Counseling Collective
Counselor/Therapist, LCPC
The thoughts won't stop. You know they don't make sense, or at least part of you knows, but the anxiety is so intense that you do the ritual anyway. Check again. Wash again. Replay the thought until you're sure, except you're never really sure. People who don't have OCD don't understand how consuming it is, how much mental energy it takes, how exhausting it is to fight your own brain all day. We understand OCD and how to treat it effectively. That means evidence-based approaches, not just talk therapy, that help you break the cycle of obsession and compulsion and reclaim your life from the disorder. Telehealth throughout Illinois. BCBS PPO and Aetna accepted.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard treatment for OCD. OCD often involves intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that can feel distressing and difficult to control. In therapy, we focus on gradually facing feared thoughts and situations while reducing compulsive responses, helping you build tolerance for uncertainty and anxiety. I also incorporate ACT-based strategies to support a different relationship with intrusive thoughts, so they have less impact on your daily life and you can move toward what matters most to you.

Headline: Take the Steering Wheel Back from OCD
The Specialized Path to Relief
OCD can make your world feel incredibly small, turning everyday moments into a minefield of "what-ifs" and exhausting rituals. In my private-pay practice, I offer a focused, high-touch approach to help you break these cycles using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard in OCD recovery.
How We Work Together: A Collaborative Alliance
I understand that the idea of "facing your fears" can feel overwhelming. That is why my approach is deeply client-centered and built on a foundation of total trust.
You Are the Expert on You: We work as a team. While ERP involves progressively leaning into the triggers, thoughts, or places that spark your anxiety, I will never push you further than you are willing or able to go.
The Goal is Mastery, Not Fear: We move at a pace that is challenging but manageable, giving you the tools to experience a trigger without needing a compulsion to neutralize it. This is how you reclaim your brain.
The Private Pay Advantage for OCD
ERP is a highly specialized, nuanced intervention. By choosing a private-pay specialist, you are investing in:
Clinical Freedom: We aren't limited by insurance-mandated timeframes. We can spend the time we actually need on complex exposures.
A Custom Roadmap: Every compulsion is different. My smaller caseload allows me to design a deeply individualized hierarchy of exposures that target your specific intrusive thoughts.
Higher Accessibility: You get a partner who is fully invested in your progress and available for the high-level support that OCD recovery requires.
Ready to break the cycle?
If you’re tired of letting your compulsions run the show, let’s build a plan to get you back to the life you value. Schedule a free consultation to see how we can start this work together.
