Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) isn’t just about rituals or repetitive behaviors—it’s often driven by intrusive thoughts, doubt, and a relentless need for certainty. Whether you're managing contamination fears, moral scrupulosity, relationship doubts, or perfectionistic obsessions, I offer targeted, evidence-based treatment designed to interrupt the cycle and restore clarity.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT)—a specialized model for treating obsessional doubt and inferential confusion. We’ll map your obsessional sequences, identify cognitive distortions, and build a personalized toolkit for reclaiming agency over your thoughts and behaviors.
Treatment is structured, collaborative, and grounded in scientific research. I also provide custom psychoeducation materials, obsessional mapping worksheets, and values-based decision tools to support long-term resilience. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone navigating OCD behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that respects your intelligence and equips you for change.

Dr. Jenny Shields
Psychologist
When you have OCD, your thoughts don’t just feel intrusive—they feel relentless. Maybe you find yourself trapped in endless checking rituals, consumed by distressing “what-if” scenarios, or haunted by unwanted, disturbing images. Dr. Jenny Shields understands that OCD can feel profoundly isolating, particularly for high-achieving professionals who are used to trusting their own minds. By using evidence-based interventions like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dr. Shields helps you gently face—and ultimately reclaim power over—obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Her approach is compassionate, empowering, and tailored specifically to you, helping restore a sense of trust and peace within yourself.

Christine Highfill
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC-S
Living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting, with intrusive thoughts, images, or urges that seem impossible to quiet, and repetitive behaviors or rituals that feel necessary just to get through the day. OCD is not about being “overly neat”—it’s about anxiety, uncertainty, and the need for relief from distressing thoughts. In therapy, I provide evidence-based support (including ERP, CBT, and mindfulness strategies) in a safe, non-judgmental space. Together, we’ll work to reduce the power of obsessions, ease compulsions, and build healthier coping strategies so you can feel more in control and free to live your life with greater balance and peace.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
I use exposure therapy to help clients with OCD gradually face feared thoughts, situations, or sensations while learning to resist compulsive responses. The process is collaborative and carefully paced, helping clients build tolerance for uncertainty and reduce the power OCD has over daily life. Over time, exposure therapy supports lasting relief by teaching the brain that anxiety can be experienced without giving in to compulsions.

Sarah Jacques
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
OCD can feel overwhelming—endless intrusive thoughts, rituals, or “what if” cycles that leave you drained and stuck. I use evidence-based approaches, including Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT), to help you break free from these patterns and regain control of your life. In therapy, you’ll learn to respond differently to intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsions, and build resilience so anxiety doesn’t dictate your every move.

Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
Exposure and Response Prevention (EX/RP) is the way to go, here. Did you know that there is such as thing as "Pure obsessive" or "Pure O" OCD? Not all OCD involves behavioral compulsions such as counting or hand washing. Some of it is mental compulsions only! Unless you're a true expert, diagnosing OCD can be extremely difficult. Misdiagnoses can be dangerous and costly.

Living with OCD can be exhausting — intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors can take over your day, disrupt your focus, and leave you feeling frustrated or ashamed. But OCD is treatable, and you don’t have to manage it on your own. Through evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), therapy can help you break free from the cycle, reduce anxiety, and reclaim your time and mental space.

Dr. Patricia Webbink
Psychologist, MA and PhD in Clinical Psychology
One could say that we all need a bit of Obsessive Compulsiveness to keep our homes and lives organized, but too much of it can result in dysfunctional behaviors like repeatedly checking the stove to see if it was left on, obsessive hand-washing irritating one's skin, etc. The movie “As Good As It Gets” is an example of a man whose total existence is negatively impacted by extreme Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Check out my monthly, free, zoom seminars. Please feel free to call for further information and/or a consultation: 301-229-8000.

Leslie Worley
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-C
At Waves of Wisdom Therapy, treatment for OCD is about learning how to live meaningfully with the presence of obsessional doubts. We will learn how to make room for the full range of human experience without being pulled under the current of the OCD cycle.
All of the work we do is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT reminds us that pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. We can’t control our thoughts or emotions, but we can choose how we respond to them, and in doing so, move toward a life guided by purpose, presence, and self-compassion.
From this foundation, we integrate two powerful, evidence-based methods: Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) in order to help you understand and change the patterns that keep OCD alive.
