Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). My diverse professional background includes working in hospital settings, private practice, and serving as a medical officer in the U.S. Army.

These experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of complex mental health concerns and a commitment to delivering effective, evidence-based care. My goal is to help you break free from unhelpful patterns, enhance your emotional well-being, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. Together, we’ll develop an approach tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you feel supported every step of the way.

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.

Camille Larsen
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LAC
Are you obsessing inside and performing internal (thought) or behavioral compulsions to try to manage your anxiety? Is it getting worse? Is it interrupting your life and frustrating the people who care about you? You can improve with help.
I am trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, which is an evidence-based OCD treatment and is tailored to be challenging but not overwhelming. We set small, achievable goals each session. I do a lot of this work and get very good results. Be prepared for practice in between sessions as part of ERP so you can live more fully in the ways you want.

Tracey Knows
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Living with OCD can feel exhausting, with intrusive thoughts, compulsions, and fear-driven behaviors taking over daily life. I help individuals learn how to embrace and accept their tendencies rather than fight against them, reducing the shame and anxiety that often accompany OCD. Through Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), mindfulness, and cognitive techniques, I guide clients in disrupting irrational fears and thought spirals while building resilience against intrusive thoughts. My approach also focuses on calming the nervous system, reducing panic attacks, and fostering a greater sense of self-trust and emotional regulation.

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.

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.
