OCD
Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
OCD is often misunderstood as being about neatness or liking things a certain way—but for people actually living with it, it can feel relentless. Intrusive thoughts that don’t match your values, urges that don’t make sense, and mental or behavioral rituals that temporarily reduce anxiety but keep the cycle going. It can be exhausting, confusing, and isolating—especially when the content of the thoughts feels disturbing or hard to talk about. Many people spend a lot of time trying to manage or hide it, while also questioning themselves in the process.
At Nour Counseling, we take OCD seriously and we treat it directly. We help you understand how the OCD cycle works—why the thoughts stick, why the anxiety spikes, and how compulsions reinforce the pattern. From there, we use structured, evidence-based approaches to help you gradually face what feels uncomfortable without relying on rituals, so your brain can learn something different. We also tailor this work to your real life, taking into account your values, your environment, and the cultural or religious context that may shape how OCD shows up for you. This is active, collaborative work focused on helping you feel less controlled by the cycle and more able to move through your life with freedom and clarity.

OCD
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.

Lynette Cisneros
Counselor/Therapist, LCMHC, LMHC
I work with clients who struggle with OCPD which presents largely with perfectionism across various aspects of one's life including setting unrealistic standards for self and others. Obsessive compulsive personality disorder tendencies link closely with anxiety, thought spirals, obsessive thinking, compulsive behaviors and there can be a genetic predisposition that should be acknowledged. We will work to reframe and challenge the thinking behind the triggers and limit the distress which accompanies them while decreasing the problematic behaviors. Our goal may be to strive for an increased awareness and then an increased intentional response.

OCD
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP or ERP). This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for OCD available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create obsessive thinking and emotional distress and how to simultaneously resist acting on urges to engage in your compulsive behavior. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming compulsive urges. People with OCD are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Julien Moe
Hypnotherapist, Diploma in Clinical and Applied Hypnosis, Diploma in Life Coaching
OCD is not really an issue if you know how to deal with it. I have been helping my clients with this issue administering hypnotherapies and Dicit hypnotherapy. My clients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time. Now that they can live in peace with no intrusive thoughts.
Hypnotherapy is generally considered a complementary tool, rather than a primary cure, for OCD, designed to reduce anxiety and assist in managing symptoms. It can help patients, as described by Psychology Today, by inducing deep relaxation, reducing fear, and aiding in shifting focus away from obsessions.
