Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with.
If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like.
It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself.
Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.

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.

Dr. Daniele Levy, Bay Area Cognitive Therapy
Psychologist, PhD, MBA
In treating OCD, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with a focus on exposure and response prevention (ERP). This involves gradually confronting fears without engaging in compulsive behaviors, helping clients break the cycle of obsession and compulsion. Together, we challenge the irrational thoughts that drive your OCD, developing healthier responses and promoting greater flexibility around your thoughts and behaviors. My goal is to help you reduce the power OCD has in your life, improving your ability to function with confidence and calm.
