I work collaboratively with clients to understand how obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors affect their lives. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), we identify unhelpful patterns and practice new ways of responding to anxiety and uncertainty. Together, we build skills to reduce compulsions, manage intrusive thoughts, and regain a sense of control. My goal is to help clients find relief, confidence, and freedom from OCD’s grip.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Dr. Pam Heilman
Psychologist, Psy.D., LCP
I completed the Behavioral Therapy Training Institute with the International OCD Foundation in 2023 and I have extensive experience working with clients who have OCD and related conditions. I frequently utilize Exposure and Response Prevention to help clients identify triggers and feared situations and then help them to gradually face these challenges. Part of this work also involves helping clients identify compulsions or "safety behaviors" that they have been using in an attempt to neutralize the anxiety. The goal is to begin facing feared situations without use of compulsions. This helps the brain to relearn that these situations can be faced and that anxiety will subside over time.

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.

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.

Therapy focuses on breaking unhelpful patterns, building confidence to face uncertainty, and identifying what is most important and meaningful to you. Therapy for OCD is both supportive and active.

Psychologist, PhD
Is OCD putting a strain on your relationship? You’re not alone. Think of OCD as a relentless bully, constantly dictating how you should act—or else. But this bully doesn’t just target you; it infiltrates your relationship, too. Your partner may feel pressured to follow certain behaviors dictated by OCD, and over time, that pressure can turn into frustration or resentment. When your partner pushes back, it might feel like hostility toward you. Now, you’re not only struggling with intrusive thoughts and anxiety but also the pain of feeling unsupported or blamed in your relationship. If this is your experience, working with a couple therapist that fully understands the nature of OCD is essential. Couple therapy can help you and your partner to develop a shared understanding of how to best respond when OCD shows up, so that you are united in taking a stand against this bully, rather than letting it come between you.
