OCD
Jennifer Warkentin
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a type of anxiety where people ruminate over distressing thoughts and then engage in repetitive behaviors or mental acts as a way of managing the obsessive thoughts. It can take many forms with varying levels of intensity. OCD is typically treated with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy combined with Exposure Response Prevention. We will explore the thoughts and compulsions you're experiencing and create a robust plan of changing your experience of anxiety.

Hailey Williford

In my practice, I enjoy working with clients experiencing symptoms of OCD including but not limited to: intrusive and or distressing thoughts, compulsions, reassurance seeking, difficulty in relationships (including ROCD), specific phobias, etc. I utilize Exposure and Response prevention Therapy (ERP) to manage anxious reactions to triggers.

OCD
Dr. Divya Kakaiya Healthy Within
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist Ph. D M.S. BCN-L
OCD is a brain stuck in a loop — hyperactive circuits between the orbital frontal cortex and deeper subcortical structures firing relentlessly, generating intrusive thoughts and compelling rituals that feel impossible to resist.
Neurofeedback targets this overactive circuitry directly, training the brain to quiet the alarm system driving compulsive behavior. Over sessions, the loop loosens — intrusive thoughts lose their neurological grip, and the urgency to ritualize gradually diminishes.
