Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be an overwhelming and exhausting experience, often marked by persistent intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that feel impossible to control. Using techniques drawn from Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), I help individuals understand how doubt and distorted reasoning patterns fuel their OCD, rather than focusing solely on the content of their obsessions. I-CBT offers a powerful alternative to traditional exposure-based approaches by targeting the root of obsessive thinking — the faulty inferences that drive the cycle. Together, we work to challenge these thinking errors, reduce reliance on compulsions, and rebuild trust in one's own perceptions. My goal is to help clients regain a sense of clarity, confidence, and freedom from the grip of OCD.

Debra Nelson
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Exposure and Response prevention is a very specific therapy to address concerns related to Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Within this therapy model, we would work together to generate a hierarchy of events or stumbling blocks getting in your way. We then create challenges for concurring each obstacle using learned coping skills from session.

Luke Colbourn
Counselor/Therapist, Licensed Professional Counselor
Intrusive thoughts are a common human experience, but for some these are more extreme, more insistent, and the attempts to deal with them can become a source of suffering themselves. I have specific training in ERP(Exposure and Response Therapy), and understand that to most, this sounds overwhelming. The goal of ERP and the way I work with it, is to gradually cultivate an internal sense of safety- we work collaboratively and aim to not overwhelm your nervous system as we untangle these patterns.

Obsessive-compulsive patterns often keep you trapped in cycles of fear and ritual. I offer compassionate support that acknowledges how anxiety lives in the body. We’ll gently identify triggers, reduce shame around intrusive thoughts, and build flexibility. While I use exposure-informed tools, our work remains body-based and culturally sensitive to your unique experience.

Stephanie Miodus
Psychologist, PhD, NCSP
I specialize in therapy for individuals with OCD, including those with overlapping neurodevelopmental needs such as autism. Specifically, I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), an evidence-based treatment to reduce OCD symptoms. For parents, using an evidence-based parent coaching model (SPACE), I provide guidance on how to support progress at home while reducing unhelpful accommodations. My work also focuses on providing diagnostic clarity in assessments, especially when symptoms of OCD and autism may look similar but require different approaches.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Being restricted by intense worries about oneself and others can lead people into rigid routines that function to alleviate the intensity of their inner tensions, if only for a short time. People who are unable to break out from these patterns can become self-critical and lose a sense of hope that can be debilitating. It is important to remind ourselves in these instances that things can improve and that sometimes it may only take the effort to reach out for help.

Tiyahna M
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCPC,LPCMH,NCC,C-DBT
I use exposure therapy to help clients with OCD gradually face feared thoughts, situations, or sensations while learning to resist compulsive responses. The process is collaborative and carefully paced, helping clients build tolerance for uncertainty and reduce the power OCD has over daily life. Over time, exposure therapy supports lasting relief by teaching the brain that anxiety can be experienced without giving in to compulsions.

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.

Blair Pallas
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Living with OCD often feels like a lifelong search for a certainty that never arrives. No matter how many times you try to answer a 'what-if' thought, ignore a fear, or seek reassurance, the urge always demands more. In our work together, I help you break these anxiety-driven patterns using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—a practical, evidence-based approach that helps you stay in the driver's seat.
Through a mix of education, skills building and proven theraputic models, I walk alongside you as you learn to navigate the very uncertainty that at times feels impossible to handle. We don’t just talk about the cycle; we work together to change your response to it in real-time. Step by step, you’ll learn to make space for the unknown, reclaiming your time and energy to build a life that feels much bigger and freer than the one OCD has allowed you.
