OCD
Jason Holland
Psychologist, Ph.D.
OCD is not just about being careful or particular. It is a cycle of intrusive thoughts and urges that create distress and pull you into behaviors meant to reduce anxiety. We will work on understanding your OCD pattern and changing how you respond to uncertainty. The goal is to reduce OCD’s control and help you live with more freedom and flexibility.

Merrisa Dawn Santos
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC, NCC, CCTMHP, CCTP
In supporting patients struggling with OCD issues, I provide compassionate and evidence-based interventions to help them manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life. Through therapy, we work on understanding the underlying fears and compulsions driving their OCD behaviors. I offer cognitive-behavioral techniques such as exposure and response prevention to help them gradually confront and reduce their obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Additionally, we focus on developing coping strategies, relaxation techniques, and mindfulness practices to manage anxiety and stress. The goal is to empower patients to regain control over their lives and engage in meaningful activities, despite their OCD symptoms, leading to greater freedom and well-being.

Nicole Houde
Pre-Licensed Professional
I work with individuals experiencing OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard treatment for OCD. OCD often involves intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that can feel distressing and difficult to control. In therapy, we focus on gradually facing feared thoughts and situations while reducing compulsive responses, helping you build tolerance for uncertainty and anxiety. I also incorporate ACT-based strategies to support a different relationship with intrusive thoughts, so they have less impact on your daily life and you can move toward what matters most to you.

Juliette Grantham
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LPC
I'm Juliette Grantham, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist specializing in OCD.
Obsessive-compulsive difficulty can take over an enormous amount of a life: intrusive thoughts you find abhorrent and cannot stop having, rituals that must be completed in a particular way, checking and rechecking, reassurance you need to ask for again almost immediately, and the private exhaustion of arithmetic nobody else can see. Much of it is difficult to describe to the people closest to you, which tends to add shame to everything else.
I work psychoanalytically, which means we take up what the obsessions and compulsions are doing rather than only working to reduce them. They carry an unconscious logic worth understanding, frequently concerning responsibility, aggression, doubt, or contamination in senses well beyond the literal. Understood at that level, they tend to loosen their hold more durably than they do when managed from the outside. Some people whose compulsions are severely disruptive to daily functioning choose to do behavioral work concurrently, and that can sit alongside this without conflict.
If OCD has been taking up more of your life than you want it to, I would be glad to talk.
