The Specialized Path to Relief
OCD can make your world feel incredibly small, turning everyday moments into a minefield of "what-ifs" and exhausting rituals. In my private-pay practice, I offer a focused, high-touch approach to help you break these cycles using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard in OCD recovery.
How We Work Together: A Collaborative Alliance
I understand that the idea of "facing your fears" can feel overwhelming. That is why my approach is deeply client-centered and built on a foundation of total trust.
You Are the Expert on You: We work as a team. While ERP involves progressively leaning into the triggers, thoughts, or places that spark your anxiety, I will never push you further than you are willing or able to go.
The Goal is Mastery, Not Fear: We move at a pace that is challenging but manageable, giving you the tools to experience a trigger without needing a compulsion to neutralize it. This is how you reclaim your brain.
The Private Pay Advantage for OCD
ERP is a highly specialized, nuanced intervention. By choosing a private-pay specialist, you are investing in:
Clinical Freedom: We aren't limited by insurance-mandated timeframes. We can spend the time we actually need on complex exposures.
A Custom Roadmap: Every compulsion is different. My smaller caseload allows me to design a deeply individualized hierarchy of exposures that target your specific intrusive thoughts.
Higher Accessibility: You get a partner who is fully invested in your progress and available for the high-level support that OCD recovery requires.
Ready to break the cycle?
If you’re tired of letting your compulsions run the show, let’s build a plan to get you back to the life you value. Schedule a free consultation to see how we can start this work together.

OCD
Dr. Stephanie Vaughn
Psychologist, Psy.D., DBT-LBC™
Exposure and Response Prevention (EX/RP) is the way to go, here. Did you know that there is such as thing as "Pure obsessive" or "Pure O" OCD? Not all OCD involves behavioral compulsions such as counting or hand washing. Some of it is mental compulsions only! Unless you're a true expert, diagnosing OCD can be extremely difficult. Misdiagnoses can be dangerous and costly.
