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.

Dr. Karina Luaces
Psychologist, PsyD.
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.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD requires specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. In fact, when it comes to OCD, they could be making things worse! The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD with decades of research showing that they actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD, and I also address co-occurring anxiety disorders, depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.

Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I provide prolonged exposure (PE) therapy for OCD. In this type of treatment, you learn skills to regulate anxiety as it arises in response to environmental triggers, and work on using these skills in session when faced with a compulsion-triggering stimulus. We focus on psychoeducation on obsessional thinking and compulsive behavior patterns, and gradually work with you to use skills instead of engaging in compulsions, so you can have more time and and attention for your relationships, interests, and passions.

I work collaboratively with clients to understand how obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors affect their lives.

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.

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.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Living with OCD can feel exhausting and frankly, painful. The intrusive thoughts, the “what ifs,” the rituals that take over your day—it can all leave you feeling stuck in a loop you can’t get out of. But OCD is treatable, and you don’t have to manage it alone.
In therapy, we’ll work together to understand the patterns that keep you feeling trapped and build tools that help you get your life back. Using evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), cognitive-behavioral strategies, and a lot of compassion, we’ll slowly retrain your brain to feel safer and more in control. With therapy you'll learn how to challenge intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsive behaviors, and create more space for the things that actually matter to you—not the fears or urges that feel so loud right now.
Whether your OCD shows up through checking, cleaning, intrusive images, rumination, reassurance seeking, perfectionism, or fears you’ve never said out loud, therapy is a place where you can finally talk about it without judgment.
