Melissa Jermann
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel like an endless cycle of intrusive thoughts, images, urges, and compulsive behaviors that consume your time, energy, and peace of mind. At my practice, we specialize in treating OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard treatment for OCD. While also incorporating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) skills. Together, we’ll work to break the OCD cycle, face your fears in a supportive and structured way, and help you reclaim control over your life. Whether you’re navigating contamination fears, checking behaviors, taboo intrusive thoughts, or other OCD challenges, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

Logan Smlth
Psychologist, PhD
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) involves unwanted and repetitive thoughts or feelings (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions). Sometimes your compulsions can be physical actions (like checking a lock, or washing your hands, touching something, etc.) or mental actions (like mentally backtracking your steps, planning everything carefully, counting etc.). Sometimes people with OCD feel “out of control” or incredibly distressed if they don’t do a compulsion in response to an obsession. OCD can feel more intense during periods of stress, and is often accompanied with depression symptoms or other forms of anxiety.
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the therapy I typically use in the treatment of OCD; it can also be helpful for certain phobias. This therapy will involve careful, preplanned, gradual exposures to the focus of OCD, while helping you learn how to stop yourself from acting on your compulsion. Clients experiencing OCD are often doubtful of their ability to control their compulsions, but find ERP to be surprisingly effective. An ERP treatment course usually involves weekly, one-hour appointments for as long as they seem appropriate, at which point I usually decrease the frequency of appointments gradually (moving to once every two weeks, once every three weeks, etc.). Some clients benefit from meeting more often than once per week, which is something we can discuss if it seems appropriate.

Katie Steinert
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Is your OCD taking center stage in your life? Has it been consuming your time and energy? Examples of common obsessions include germs/contamination, fear of causing harm, and fear of losing control. Examples of common compulsions are checking, cleaning, and repeating actions. I take an evidence-based approach to OCD treatment with the use of ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) based in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) principles. I'll work with you to re-connect with your values, minimize OCD's power, and reclaim your life.
