Joel Schmidt
Licensed Professional Counselor, Licensed Mental Health Counselor, Qualified Supervisor
OCD isn’t just about being neat or organized. It’s about intrusive thoughts and exhausting mental loops that can leave you feeling overwhelmed and out of control. I specialize in treating OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard approach, in a way that’s supportive and at your pace. Together, we’ll work on facing uncertainty, reducing compulsions, and building a life that’s not dictated by fear.

Kirk Shelton
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Obsessive-compulsive behaviors can feel overwhelming and controlling, but change is possible. I help clients break free from the cycle of obsession and compulsion, using CBT and EMDR to reprocess the underlying triggers and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

Marcy Miller
Pre-Licensed Professional, Ph.D.
OCD can feel like being caught in a loop. When intrusive thoughts create distress, certain behaviors or mental rituals offer temporary relief but ultimately keep the cycle going. Many people also experience shame or confusion about the content of their thoughts, which can make it even harder to seek support.
In our work together, we’ll focus both on the structure of OCD and your unique emotional experience within it. Rather than treating intrusive thoughts as problems to eliminate, we’ll work to change your relationship to them, with growing awareness, flexibility, and tolerance.
I integrate exposure-informed strategies with a deeper, emotion-focused approach, helping you gradually reduce compulsive patterns while also understanding the anxiety and meaning attached to them. This work is collaborative and paced, supporting you in building confidence, reducing avoidance, and reconnecting with a greater sense of freedom in your life.
