Catherine Bitney
Psychologist, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
I have a passion for helping clients reduce OCD - a disorder that is very time consuming and debilitating. This kind of work is so very difficult, but for those that can make it into therapy and take advantage of exposure and response prevention, the results are astounding.

OCD
Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I provide prolonged exposure (PE) therapy for OCD. In this type of treatment, you learn skills to regulate anxiety as it arises in response to environmental triggers, and work on using these skills in session when faced with a compulsion-triggering stimulus. We focus on psychoeducation on obsessional thinking and compulsive behavior patterns, and gradually work with you to use skills instead of engaging in compulsions, so you can have more time and and attention for your relationships, interests, and passions.

Katie Steinert

Is your OCD taking center stage in your life? Has it been consuming your time and energy? Examples of common obsessions include germs/contamination, fear of causing harm, and fear of losing control. Examples of common compulsions are checking, cleaning, and repeating actions. I take an evidence-based approach to OCD treatment with the use of ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) based in ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) principles. I'll work with you to re-connect with your values, minimize OCD's power, and reclaim your life.

OCD
Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
I specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD requires specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. In fact, when it comes to OCD, they could be making things worse! The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD with decades of research showing that they actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD, and I also address co-occurring anxiety disorders, depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.

OCD
Ryan Ramsey
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I specialize in treating anxiety disorders using Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I help clients develop healthier ways of thinking, relating to themselves, and responding to life so they can feel calmer, more confident, and more in control. No matter how long you have been struggling, there is hope that things can improve. I have helped many people reduce anxiety, gain insight into themselves, and experience greater peace and ease in their lives. I can help you, too.
My approach combines strong clinical training with warmth, humor, curiosity, and honest conversation. I’m an active therapist: I’ll listen closely and give you room to talk, but I’ll also ask questions, offer feedback, challenge you when it’s useful, and help you notice patterns you may not see on your own.
Therapy with me isn’t rigid or filled with clinical jargon. We’ll have real conversations about what’s happening in your life, how you’re thinking and feeling, and the ways you relate to yourself and the people around you. We’ll work on changing patterns that are keeping you stuck while also making space to understand where those patterns came from and what they mean to you.
I believe good therapy can be both supportive and challenging. My goal is for you to feel heard, understood, and accepted while also helping you think differently, take risks, and make meaningful changes in how you experience yourself and your life.
If you're ready to get started, just reach out. You can email me or visit my website to schedule an initial consultation. I'm looking forward to talking with you.

Lakewood is Denver's largest western suburb, stretching from urban corridors to the foothills, home to the Denver Federal Center's large government workforce and a broad mix of families, young renters, and long-term residents. Its mental health needs are metro-mainstream — work and family stress, housing cost pressure, and outdoor-lifestyle expectations that don't insulate anyone from anxiety or depression. Jefferson Center for Mental Health provides community services, and Denver's deep therapy market is next door.
