OCD
Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Being restricted by intense worries about oneself and others can lead people into rigid routines that function to alleviate the intensity of their inner tensions, if only for a short time. People who are unable to break out from these patterns can become self-critical and lose a sense of hope that can be debilitating. It is important to remind ourselves in these instances that things can improve and that sometimes it may only take the effort to reach out for help.

OCD
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.

Sarah Farris
Licensed Professional Counselor, MA, LCPC, LPC
Obsessive – Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a condition that involves unwanted intrusive thoughts, images or urges. As a result, individuals with OCD feel driven to reduce the distress they experience by engaging in compulsions. I utilized evidence-based therapy including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT and I-CBT), exposure and response prevention (ERP), and mindfulness methods to help clients struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Illness Anxiety, and co-occuring conditions. Breaking the overthinking, avoidance and rumination cycle is possible.

OCD
Wayne G. Siegel, PhD, ABPP
Psychologist, Clinical Psychology
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) isn’t just about rituals or repetitive behaviors—it’s often driven by intrusive thoughts, doubt, and a relentless need for certainty. Whether you're managing contamination fears, moral scrupulosity, relationship doubts, or perfectionistic obsessions, I offer targeted, evidence-based treatment designed to interrupt the cycle and restore clarity.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT)—a specialized model for treating obsessional doubt and inferential confusion. We’ll map your obsessional sequences, identify cognitive distortions, and build a personalized toolkit for reclaiming agency over your thoughts and behaviors.
Treatment is structured, collaborative, and grounded in scientific research. I also provide custom psychoeducation materials, obsessional mapping worksheets, and values-based decision tools to support long-term resilience. Whether you're a healthcare professional, entrepreneur, or someone navigating OCD behind a high-functioning exterior, we’ll build a roadmap that respects your intelligence and equips you for change.

Jameeka Moore
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you finding yourself growing increasingly frustrated with OCDs demands and limitations that it places on your life? Are your relationships or other areas of your life suffering because of the behaviors that you feel compelled to do or because of your inability to show up in the ways that you would like. Are you finding it difficult to break the cycle out of the fear of the anxiety and uncertainty that you would experience if you did not comply? I would like to help you break the cycle of giving in to your OCD. I want to help you better understand OCDs tricks and develop willingness and courage to help you learn to challenge OCD so that you can live in accordance with your values. I use Exposure and Response Prevention, which is an effective treatment approach that can help you better manage your anxiety and regain areas of your life that have been impacted due to OCD.

I help individuals build a stronger and more stable sense of self-worth. Drawing on extensive clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns—including anxiety, depression, trauma, personality dynamics, and life transitions across community mental health and private practice settings—I support clients in identifying patterns of self-criticism, perfectionism, and self-doubt that interfere with growth. Together, we develop greater self-awareness, confidence, and emotional resilience so clients can approach relationships, work, and personal goals with a stronger sense of identity and self-trust.
