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.

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.

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.

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.

Jennifer Whaley
Psychologist, PsyD
OCD results in great distress and fear for day-to-day tasks and situations. It is our human nature to try to quell this fear; however, this can be part of what keeps the cycle going. I use an exposure based approach (ERP) of exploring your fears and responses while gaining confidence through practicing actions.

Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in OCD because it is a highly misunderstood and often misdiagnosed condition that demands specialized, evidence-based care to treat effectively. While "talk therapy" can sometimes worsen symptoms, specialized Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard of care—provides tangible, life-changing results.
I am passionate about helping clients break the cycle of obsession and compulsion, shifting them from debilitating fear to confidence and freedom. My focus is on providing a safe, stigma-free space for individuals to tackle their hardest fears and regain control of their lives.

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.

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.

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.

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.
