Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you can't turn off your mind and your thoughts are taking over your life, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats OCD and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Counselor/Therapist, NCCA CTCC CPC
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) counseling is a specially designed to help individuals who are struggling with the often debilitating symptoms of OCD. This mental health disorder is characterized by unwanted and intrusive thoughts (obsessions) that lead to repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions). Our counseling services focus on providing varied approaches, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), to reduce the occurrence and impact of OCD symptoms, thereby improving daily functioning and quality of life.
Evidence-Based Treatment for OCD
* Tailored CBT Techniques: We utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and challenge the distorted thinking patterns that fuel their obsessions and compulsions.
* Exposure and Response Prevention: ERP involves gradually exposing clients to their feared objects or ideas (exposures) and teaching them to resist the urge to carry out their usual compulsive acts (response prevention).
* Skills Training: Clients are trained in stress management and relaxation techniques to help manage the anxiety that often accompanies OCD.
* Mindfulness and Acceptance: Incorporating elements of mindfulness helps clients learn to accept their obsessive thoughts without acting on them compulsively.
* Family Involvement: We provide support and education for families of individuals with OCD so that they can better understand the disorder and offer the right kind of support to their loved ones.
Goals of OCD Counseling
Our OCD counseling services strive to:
* Reduce OCD Symptoms: Aim to significantly decrease the frequency and severity of obsessions and compulsions.
* Increase Functionality: Help clients regain control over their lives and engage more fully with work, school, and social activities.
* Enhance Coping Skills: Equip individuals with tools and strategies to manage OCD symptoms independently and effectively.
* Improve Quality of Life: Focus on improving overall well-being, satisfaction, and happiness in life beyond OCD symptoms.
* Prevent Relapse: Provide clients with the knowledge and skills to maintain their progress and prevent the recurrence of severe OCD symptoms.
OCD counseling is a path toward reclaiming a sense of normalcy and freedom from the cycles of obsessive-compulsive behaviors. Our commitment lies in delivering compassionate and competent care tailored to each individual’s experience. If you or a loved one is grappling with OCD, reach out to us to learn more about our targeted OCD counseling services and begin the journey to recovery.

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.

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.

OCD can be debilitating, but effective treatments exist. Our practice offers focused medication management to help reduce obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, often in coordination with exposure-based therapy provided by outside clinicians. We understand that OCD frequently overlaps with anxiety, depression, and perfectionism, and we design treatment plans that address the broader mental health picture for lasting improvement.

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.
