Hailey Goldberg
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker (MSW), DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™
I provide support for individuals experiencing OCD, particularly when intrusive, unwanted thoughts are creating significant distress or interfering with daily life. Many people with OCD worry that their thoughts mean something about who they are or what they might do, leading to significant fear, shame, self-doubt, and attempts to gain certainty or reassurance. In therapy, I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore these experiences and better understand how OCD can become stuck in cycles of fear and compulsive responding.
Using evidence-based approaches, I help clients learn new ways of relating to intrusive thoughts so they have less power and influence over daily life. Whether your OCD involves themes related to harm, relationships, sexuality, morality, health, or other unwanted thoughts, my goal is to help you build confidence in your ability to tolerate uncertainty and live in accordance with your values rather than your fears.

Gail Kirk Poust
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
OCD is a bully that takes your values hostage. It finds what you care about most (your loved ones' safety, your goodness, your faith, your relationship) and turns it into unwanted thoughts you can't shake and rituals you can't skip: checking, washing, confessing, mentally reviewing, asking for reassurance one more time. The relief never lasts, and the loop keeps tightening. Here's what I want you to know: intrusive thoughts are not intentions, and being horrified by a thought is proof of your values, not evidence against them. I treat OCD with ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention), the gold-standard approach. It is collaborative, paced, never sprung on you. I also treat postpartum OCD, where intrusive thoughts about your baby leave you terrified and silent. That, too, is treatable, and having the thought is not the same as being a danger. The thoughts have had the last word long enough.
