Susan B. Coleman
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LPC
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) can range from mild to severe, and it often takes many forms. If you think you may be experiencing symptoms, we can work together to assess your options. Exposure and response prevention (ERP), a part of CBT therapy, is an effective treatment for OCD symptoms - and it’s something we can approach slowly and as a team to get you relief.

Does this sound like your experience of OCD?
You can’t stop thinking about something. In order to feel better there’s something you HAVE to do. You can’t relax without doing whatever that is. You’re preoccupied with worry over something and whatever it is you have to do feel better.
This often leads to…
Difficulty staying present. Not enjoying your life as much due to being preoccupied with something. Feeling nervous and anxious. Feeling Frustrated with having to do a behavior over and over in order to move forward.
OCD is short for obsessive-compulsive disorder which includes two issues: Obsession and Compulsion.
Obsession is when stress and worry building the system, starting with a thought about a particular issue.
A compulsion is a behavior. And unless you do the behavior, you can’t relax and move forward.
I work with clients with OCD using mindfulness.
When you notice your mind starting to get preoccupied around an obsession with something and the stress starting to build, you can notice where you feel the sensation of that worry in your body.
By staying present with that sensation, it will move and change and the worry will move through your body.
When the urge to do a compulsive behavior arises, you can likewise notice where you feel the sensation of that urge in your body and stay present with it. As you stay present with it and do not act on the urge, the sensation will move and change and the urge will pass.
In this way, we can use mindfulness to come back to the present moment and not discontinue the cycle of obsession and compulsion.
I’d be honored to support you in using mindfulness to feel better, decrease the presence of OCD in your life, and find calm presence.
