Dr. Karina Luaces

OCD can be all-consuming, making it difficult to quiet intrusive thoughts or break cycles of compulsive behavior. Using evidence-based approaches I help clients understand their OCD, reduce its grip, and reclaim a greater sense of freedom in their daily lives.

Nicole Walton
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, PhD, MSW, LISW-S
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder can be a huge disruption to your daily life. But you don't need to be afraid and you don't need to deal with it on your own. I will provide a nonjudgmental, warm, and collaborative environment to hear and address your needs so that together we can address your OCD. We will work together to address the possible underlying causes of your OCD, the symptoms and also identify a variety of strategies and methods to help you cope. I have had great success working with clients that have OCD so that they could live a life full of health and wellness and I hope I have a chance to work with you as well.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with.
If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like.
It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself.
Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.

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.

Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) traps you in a cycle of repetitive thoughts and behaviors, stealing moments of peace and creating barriers to living freely. The constant battle with uncertainty and the need for control can feel overwhelming, as if your own mind is both your sanctuary and prison. My specialized OCD treatment offers a pathway out, equipping you with strategies to break free from these cycles, regain control, and embrace the spontaneity of life with confidence.

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.

David Schaffer, MSW
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (WV), Licensed Independent Social Worker (OH)
I particularly like working with people who experience anxiety of all forms. The first area of anxiety I developed a special interest in is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. It really strikes me how "crazy" people feel when they struggle with obsessive thoughts and the compulsions that go along with them. When you are able to help people change their reaction to their obsessive thoughts, it is remarkable the improvement they can experience.
I enjoy the whole range of anxiety disorders from the worry of generalized anxiety to the body focus of panic to the avoidance reminders of traumatic experiences from posttraumatic stress. It feels like this is an area where I understand people's experiences and where the ways I tend to work with people seem to make a difference, often very quickly.

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.

Andrew McBride
Licensed Professional Counselor, MC, LCMHC, LPC
Do you experience unwanted negative thoughts and feeling compelled or forced to fixate on those thoughts or engage in some type of behavior? OCD makes it feel like we don't have control of our behavior and our lives. This is very overwhelming and quickly creates emotions of guilt, shame, and hopelessness. When treating OCD, I used a treatment called Exposure and Response Prevention, which is considered the gold standard treatment for OCD. I also sprinkle in some CBT, DBT, and other techniques that support ERP.
