It is incredibly hard and burdensome to live with OCD. I use exposure and response prevention to treat OCD to manage symptoms and restore a sense of hope and functioning.

OCD is more than just liking things neat and organized. It’s a serious and often misunderstood condition that can be incredibly disruptive to your daily life. For many people, OCD can interfere with work, relationships, and everyday routines—and it’s not something you can just “turn off.”
OCD affects people of all ages and walks of life. It often shows up as unwanted, intrusive thoughts (called obsessions) that can feel scary, upsetting, or out of your control. People can have unwanted sexual thoughts, thoughts of harming others, fears about relationships, and contamination, to name a few. To cope, you might feel driven to do certain behaviors or rituals (compulsions) in an effort to quiet those thoughts. Unfortunately, this creates a cycle that can leave you feeling exhausted, isolated, and overwhelmed.
OCD doesn’t always look the same. It can also show up in related ways, such as:
Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) – Obsessive thoughts about perceived flaws in appearance
Skin Picking (Excoriation Disorder) – Repeated picking at the skin, often causing injury
Hair Pulling (Trichotillomania) – Compulsive pulling out of hair from the scalp, eyebrows, or other areas
My approach to treating OCD is rooted in the evidence-based methods of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). ERP is considered the gold standard for OCD treatment. Together, these approaches help you face fears in a safe, supportive way—so you can break free from the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. I am a part a part of the International OCD Foundation's Therapist Network and have been trained in ERP through the organization. To find out more about OCD, Click here.
Side Note: OCD and PTSD (TRAUMA)
About 19% of people with OCD also have a history of trauma. The research in this area is still evolving, and the truth is we don't have the best methods for treating both. Some of the strategies that are highly effective for OCD might not be appropriate for someone actively struggling with PTSD, and vice versa.
Currently, Prolonged Exposure (PE) is considered the gold standard for treating PTSD. That said, some individuals don't respond well to that. Others respond well to approaches like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) or IFS (Internal Family Systems). If you’re dealing with both OCD and trauma, we’ll work together to determine the best path forward—one that’s safe, effective, and tailored to your unique needs.
PLEASE NOTE: Some treatment for OCD will be unconventional. In some cases, I may require house visits and family participation, but be assured that all treatment related to OCD is always in the interest of helping you manage unwanted thoughts and rituals.

Allison Falzone
Therapist, LMSW
OCD is often far more complex than the common stereotypes suggest. Intrusive thoughts, excessive doubt, mental reviewing, reassurance-seeking, and compulsive behaviors can become exhausting and interfere with daily life. I specialize in evidence-based OCD treatment, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), helping clients break free from OCD's cycles and build greater trust in themselves.

Jennifer Bearden
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
When unwanted thoughts and compulsions take over, you lose precious energy and freedom. We'll work to change your relationship with these intrusive thoughts, helping you see them as just thoughts, not facts, so they lose their grip. Through a "parts work" approach, we will gently explore the underlying function of the OCD—often driven by protective, highly-concerned "parts" seeking safety—to help them relax their extreme roles. You'll learn how to accept discomfort without acting on the compulsion, choosing instead to commit to actions aligned with your truest self. Our goal is to shift your focus from constant struggle to meaningful living.

Under The Tree Counseling
Life Coach
Compulsions and anxiety go hand in hand. If someone is nervous about something going wrong, they’ll become obsessed with the idea and eventually convince themselves that they must stop the negative situation from happening. Unfortunately, this mindset can be harmful, however if the client can connect the dots of their anxiety to their behavior, they will begin to see the faulty perception of their actions

Katherine Rabinowitz
Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
OCD is bandied about a lot these days. Sometimes it's confused with OCPD, and they are not the same thing. As this is to be a short description of the issue, the best I can do is to say that OCD is an anxiety disorder and OCPD is a personality disorder. There is some overlap. Both vary in severity, and difficulty hauling oneself out of. That stuckness is part of the disorder itself. To understand it better I suggest you read that part on my website that explains it in greater detail. It's under the tab "What's Troubling You."considerably greater detail.

Holly Hoffman, PsyD, Psychotherapy
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist in CA & NY
I specialize in treating OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard, evidence-based approach for reducing obsessions and compulsions. Through ERP, we gradually and collaboratively face the thoughts, images, and situations that trigger anxiety, while resisting the urge to engage in rituals or avoidance behaviors. Alongside ERP, I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients develop greater psychological flexibility — learning how to make room for uncomfortable thoughts and feelings without letting them dictate their actions. My approach focuses not just on symptom reduction, but on building a life guided by personal values, even in the presence of uncertainty or fear.

Len Ramsay
Registered Psychotherapist, Gestalt Therapist , M.B.A.
Obsession. Compulsion. Addiction. These are first cousins, thoughts and actions that seem to happen all on their own volition. In my work, there is always something good about these 3 amigos - or they would not be here in your life. The work is to discover what that is, and like in the serentiy prayer: Deal with what you can change, accept what you can't , and know the difference. Sometimes it means changing a belief, sometimes a field or environmental condition... sometimes taking care of some emotions hiding in dark places.

Ricardo Despradel
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC,LPC
I specialize in the treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard, evidence-based approach for OCD. ERP works by gradually and intentionally exposing clients to the thoughts, images, or situations that trigger their anxiety while helping them resist the urge to engage in compulsions or avoidance. Over time, this process reduces the power of intrusive thoughts, builds tolerance for uncertainty, and breaks the cycle of obsessions and compulsions that OCD depends on to survive. I work with a wide range of OCD presentations, including contamination OCD, checking, harm OCD, and other subtypes, delivering treatment in a structured, individualized, and collaborative format designed for long-term relief. I offer telehealth sessions to teens and adults across New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts, including affirming care for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC clients.
