OCD
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.

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.

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.

Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), my treatment approach is tailored to address the unique symptoms and challenges experienced by each individual. Through evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), particularly exposure and response prevention (ERP), I work collaboratively with clients to identify and challenge obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. By gradually exposing individuals to feared stimuli while refraining from engaging in compulsions, we aim to reduce anxiety and disrupt the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Additionally, I incorporate mindfulness techniques and acceptance-based strategies to help clients develop a more adaptive relationship with uncertainty and discomfort. Psychoeducation plays a crucial role in enhancing understanding of OCD and building skills for long-term management. My goal is to empower individuals to regain control over their lives, reduce OCD symptoms, and improve overall quality of life.

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
Jullee Capshaw
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCMHC, NCC
OCD is an anxiety disorder. OCD is comprised of obsessive thoughts which result in anxiety, and compulsive behaviors used to reduce the anxiety. I treat OCD using evidenced-based practice(s). I assess for OCD by identifying obsessive thoughts, frequency of obsessive thoughts, and the distress caused by the thoughts, as well as compulsive behaviors, frequency of behaviors, and difficulty controlling the behaviors. Then, the client and I develop a plan to reduce obsessive thoughts and behaviors, and increase knowledge of alternative coping mechanisms.
