David B. Shaw, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
In my treatment for OCD, I provide a specialized approach centered on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard for breaking the cycle of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors. I work closely with you to identify your triggers and develop structured exercises that help you face fears without relying on compulsions, gradually reducing their power over your life. By combining this with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I empower you to reframe your relationship with uncertainty and regain the freedom to focus on what truly matters.

Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you experience intrusive unwanted and distressing images or thoughts? Feel like there are things you have to count, check, Google, or think through in order to feel better? OCD, especially when it shows up after childbirth, is often misunderstood, and can make every part of life harder. I use evidence based treatments, including ERP, to help you get free of the OCD voice. Therapy focuses on breaking unhelpful patterns, building confidence to face uncertainty, and identifying what is most important and meaningful to you. Therapy for OCD is both supportive and active. Together we will create a step by step plan to get your life back from OCD, and I will be with you every step of the way. A life of freedom from constant fear and time consuming rituals is possible!
