Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Being restricted by intense worries about oneself and others can lead people into rigid routines that function to alleviate the intensity of their inner tensions, if only for a short time. People who are unable to break out from these patterns can become self-critical and lose a sense of hope that can be debilitating. It is important to remind ourselves in these instances that things can improve and that sometimes it may only take the effort to reach out for help.

Jennifer Whaley
Psychologist, PsyD
OCD results in great distress and fear for day-to-day tasks and situations. It is our human nature to try to quell this fear; however, this can be part of what keeps the cycle going. I use an exposure based approach (ERP) of exploring your fears and responses while gaining confidence through practicing actions.

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.

Resolve Counseling PLLC
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, MSW, LCSW
OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE DISORDER (OCD) is a common and chronic mental health disorder characterized by recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and/or repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These symptoms can significantly interfere with a person's daily activities and sense of control.
EXPOSURE AND RESPONSE PREVENTION (ERP) THERAPY ERP is a form of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) specifically designed to treat anxiety disorders, particularly obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It involves gradually exposing individuals to feared objects or situations while preventing them from engaging in their usual rituals or compulsions. This process helps clients confront their fears and learn that they can tolerate anxiety without resorting to compulsive behaviors.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with.
If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like.
It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself.
Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.

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.
