Amazing Grace Psychiatric Services, PLLC
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP, CNM, PMH-C
Intrusive thoughts are unwelcomed in our brain as much as an intruder is unwelcomed in our home. These thoughts increase anxiety to the point where a compulsive behavior develops in attempt to alleviate the anxiety. This relief is short-lived, however, and the cycle starts all over again. This is exhausting for the individual, and often is very misunderstood by those around them. Let's put an end to this cycle by discovering the source of what's causing it, and find the right therapeutic solution for you!

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP or ERP). This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for OCD available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create obsessive thinking and emotional distress and how to simultaneously resist acting on urges to engage in your compulsive behavior. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming compulsive urges. People with OCD are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’re struggling with OCD, you may feel trapped in a cycle of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that are difficult to control. You might recognize that the thoughts don’t make sense, yet still feel driven to check, repeat, or mentally review things to reduce anxiety. Over time, this can become exhausting, time-consuming, and frustrating—especially when it feels like the harder you try to stop, the stronger the urges become.
I help clients understand and change the patterns that keep OCD going. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to identify the thought patterns and behaviors that reinforce the cycle. I incorporate structured strategies to help you gradually reduce compulsions and tolerate uncertainty, while using clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP to address the underlying anxiety and automatic responses. I also integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you relate differently to intrusive thoughts—so they have less power over your behavior and your day-to-day life.
What’s often missing isn’t awareness—you likely already know the thoughts are irrational or excessive. What’s missing is a structured way to break the cycle of obsession and compulsion without increasing anxiety in the process. Without that, OCD tends to maintain itself, even when you’re highly motivated to change.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to approach this differently. If you’re willing to learn a new way of responding, I can help you reduce compulsions, manage intrusive thoughts more effectively, and regain a sense of control over your time, your mind, and your life.

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

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.

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.

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you can't turn off your mind and your thoughts are taking over your life, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats OCD and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

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.

Sarah Jacques
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSWC-C
OCD can feel overwhelming—endless intrusive thoughts, rituals, or “what if” cycles that leave you drained and stuck. I use evidence-based approaches, including Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT), to help you break free from these patterns and regain control of your life. In therapy, you’ll learn to respond differently to intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsions, and build resilience so anxiety doesn’t dictate your every move.
