Growth and Change Counseling
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a control issue that is used to compensate for the fact that a person feels completely out of control. This disorder can have physiological consequences that can cause physical harm and results in lower seratonin levels in the body. As we support you in reducing anxiety and stresses and increasing your sense of control over multiple aspects of your life, you can begin to experience a reduction in your OCD tendencies and/or find it easier to manage them.

OCD is interesting in that it could have trauma based origins, physiological origins, including epigenetic, or could be an adaptive response to something that is currently challenging. First is to decipher where the origin is as best as one can, in general an integrative and functional approach may work well, as it could be based in metabolic deficiency, for example.
Shared with care: in certain cases, we have witnessed it might evolve in people or communities where power abuse is rampant -- these compulsions can set in as ways to adapt to holding maladaptive and abusive thinking and distracting a person from the inhumanity and incoherence of the abusive thinking they have been groomed to take on. This is not written about from a hegemonic perspective, however decolonizing theory will find these challenges of OCD and even paranoia heightened in people or communities that habituate enacting atrocities. This is not trauma it is an expression of intensive moral injury and benefits from interrupting the moral injury and moving the person into ethical recovery of their humanity.
Contrapositively, trauma impactees may show OCD traits as a way of the mind distracting from torture or other forms of recurring harm psychologically (e.g repeated and intensive gaslighting), physically, sexually...etc. Here we would apply a trauma based approach to care along with Havening, Brainspotting and other ways to soothe a nervous system and restore mental networks as best we can/

OCD
David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
OCD can involve intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that feel difficult to control, even when you know they do not make sense. It can take up a lot of mental energy and interfere with your daily life. In therapy we will focus on understanding these patterns and developing ways to respond differently to the thoughts and urges. The goal is to help you feel less controlled by OCD and more able to move through your day with ease.

Timothy Weymann
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (L.C.S.W.)
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting and isolating—like your mind won’t give you a moment of rest. The intrusive thoughts, doubts, and urges to perform rituals can create a relentless cycle of anxiety and temporary relief with a rebound of increased anxiety and distress. As a therapist who works with OCD, I provide a supportive, structured space to help you break that cycle and regain a sense of choice and power over your life. Using evidence-based approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and cognitive-behavioral strategies, we’ll work together to gradually reduce the power of intrusive thoughts and compulsions. Therapy is not about eliminating thoughts—it’s about changing your relationship to them so they no longer dictate your actions or define who you are. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and steady. I understand how real and distressing OCD can feel, and I will never minimize your experience. With the right support and tools, it’s possible to live with greater freedom, flexibility, and peace of mind. You don’t have to face OCD alone.
