Charles R. Davenport, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Charles R. Davenport offers specialized treatment for individuals struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). With extensive experience in managing OCD, Dr. Davenport utilizes evidence-based therapies to help clients reduce their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
OCD is characterized by intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) that can significantly interfere with daily functioning. Dr. Davenport employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), particularly Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), to help clients confront their fears and reduce compulsive behaviors. This approach is highly effective in breaking the cycle of obsessions and compulsions.
In addition to CBT and ERP, Dr. Davenport integrates mindfulness techniques to help clients manage anxiety and stay grounded in the present moment. His holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each client’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery and emotional well-being.
Dr. Davenport provides a supportive and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and behaviors. He also offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Dr. Davenport is dedicated to helping individuals with OCD regain control of their lives and achieve lasting relief from their symptoms.

11 Years Experience
Online in Athens, GA
Athens is home to the University of Georgia and has cultivated a reputation as one of the South's most vibrant college cities, with a legendary music scene—birthplace of R.E.M. and the B-52s—a strong arts community, and a progressive political culture that contrasts with the surrounding rural Georgia context, producing a city with a well-developed and diverse therapy landscape relative to its size. UGA's Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) is the primary mental health resource for the city's enormous student population, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves the broader community including university staff, the arts and music community, and permanent residents. The sharp economic inequality between the university and creative communities and the city's lower-income and Black neighborhoods is an important dimension of the mental health landscape, and therapists in Athens work across a wide range of economic and cultural contexts. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, creative community stress, identity and LGBTQ+ issues, racial equity, and the challenges of a city where prosperity and poverty exist in close proximity.
