OCD
Sushma Cheturvedula
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
I'd help someone with OCD gain insight into their obsessions and compulsions. We'd delve into any emotional baggage or past traumas that could be fueling their OCD symptoms. In therapy, I'd employ effective techniques like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to address and modify those obsessive thoughts and behaviors. Additionally, I'd assist them in developing strategies to manage anxiety and stress more effectively. When it comes to relationships, I'd address any challenges arising from their OCD and focus on improving communication and understanding with their partner or loved ones.

Tara Thompson
Licensed Professional Counselor, MS, LPC
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can significantly impact someone's life, particularly concerning addictions, relationship issues, or depression. For example, imagine someone who feels compelled to perform certain rituals or behaviors to alleviate their anxiety. These compulsions can consume a lot of time and energy, making it difficult to maintain healthy relationships or cope with everyday stressors. As a therapist specializing in these cases, I would provide a supportive environment for the individual to talk about their experiences and struggles. We would work together to develop strategies for managing their OCD symptoms and finding healthier ways to cope with stress and improve their relationships.

Jennifer Plumb Vilardaga, PhD
Psychologist, PhD
OCD can feel limiting and time-consuming. Facing OCD can increase life satisfaction. We can use exposure therapy principles to help you break unhelpful cycles of behaviors that never fully do what they promise - bring peace. Learning to distinguish between obsessions and compulsions is an important first step, followed by building skills to be with discomfort (rather than driven to reduce discomfort) and take action toward meaningful life goals.
