Alexandria Guerrero
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist
I support individuals living with OCD who feel stuck in cycles of intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, or mental rituals that interfere with daily life. In therapy, we work to reduce the grip of these patterns by building awareness, practicing evidence-based strategies like exposure and response prevention (ERP), and creating more space for flexibility, calm, and self-trust.

Leeanne Marquez
Psychologist, Psy.D.
With OCD, QEEG phenotyping often reveals excess beta activity and rigid connectivity patterns. I use this data to inform protocols aimed at reducing over control and cognitive looping, helping clients gain greater flexibility and relief from intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.

OCD can be mild to debilitating, and is often missed and treated as anxiety. I've found that OCD and Health Anxiety, as well as Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors (BFRBs, ie. skin picking, hair pulling/tweezing, nail/cuticle biting) can sometimes co-exist together. I'm trained in treating OCD through two of the primary evidence based OCD treatment modalities -Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP/ExRP). I-CBT is a newer evidence based treatment for OCD that focuses on gaining certainty versus pushing yourself into uncertainty, and is thought to be a gentler approach. There are many types of OCD and the thought-based "invisible" types are the most often missed forms of OCD, often called the "Pure O subtype" meaning that the obsessions/thoughts are there, but that the compulsions are mental and not outwardly visible, as we've come to expect from what we see about OCD in the media/social media. There are many forms of OCD, including Postpartum OCD, Relational (romantic as well as platonic) OCD, Harm OCD, Perfectionism/Just Right OCD, Contamination OCD, Scrupulosity or Religious OCD, Checking OCD, Obsessional OCD, Sexual Orientation OCD, Pedophilia OCD, and Superstitious OCD, among others. I'm trained in treating BFRBs using multiple modalities including, Habit Reversal Training, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Comprehensive Model for the Behavioral Treatment of BFRB and DBT, which help to reduce the symptoms of BFRBs.
