Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD requires specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. In fact, when it comes to OCD, they could be making things worse! The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD with decades of research showing that they actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD, and I also address co-occurring anxiety disorders, depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.

Kate Winderman
Psychologist, Ph.D., LP
OCD can be an incredibly debilitating and scary experience. Whether you have been formally diagnosed in the past, or are curious whether you might have it, seeking treatment from a qualified clinician can help tremendously in reducing the intensity and severity of your experience. OCD can feel all-consuming, and sometimes we don't even know where to start. I have been trained in Exposure and Response Prevention from the International OCD Foundation, and continue to engage in trainings to expand my knowledge base. I can bring the evidence-based treatment to your therapy, but also the compassion, encouragement, and kindness that I have found to be incredibly necessary in this work where you take steps to face your biggest fears.

Edmund LaBarbara
Psychologist, PsyD
I specialize in helping adults navigate severe and complex Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and related conditions. Because OCD operates on cycles of intense anxiety and exhausting behavioral or mental compulsions, traditional talk therapy is rarely enough. You need a targeted, evidence-based approach designed specifically for this disorder.
During our initial sessions, we will thoroughly explore how OCD shows up in your life—identifying your unique triggers, avoidance patterns, and reassurance-seeking loops. Together, we will build a highly personalized treatment plan centered around Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard for OCD recovery. We will also integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness practices to help you build distress tolerance and psychological flexibility.
