Los Angeles, California therapist: Karen Petren, licensed clinical social worker
OCD

Karen Petren

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
I have been training in ERP (exposure response prevention), the gold standard in OCD treatment. Rather than simply talking about it, ERP directly targets the engine that keeps OCD going. Believe it or not, you can learn to face the trigger and not do the compulsion. “I can handle this…and nothing bad happens.” It is very effective and rewarding to see clients with OCD find relief and enjoy life.

Thousand Oaks is a Ventura County city long regarded as one of the safest in California, and it was this reputation that made the 2018 Borderline Bar & Grill mass shooting—in which twelve people were killed at a country music bar—particularly traumatic for the community, with the city's mental health landscape profoundly shaped by the ongoing collective grief of that event. The shooting occurred just days before the Woolsey Fire swept through parts of the surrounding area, compounding the trauma with disaster-related grief, and many local therapists have developed specialized expertise in mass casualty trauma, community grief, and the challenges of healing a community that did not expect to need such help. The city also has a significant veteran and military family population from nearby bases, and veteran-specific mental health services complement the broader private therapy sector. Common therapy concerns include trauma and PTSD, community grief, climate and wildfire anxiety, and the general anxiety and parenting stress common in an affluent suburban community, with the 2018 events adding a distinctive and ongoing layer of collective psychological need.
