Kristina Young
Therapist, LCMFT
It's been well-established that many OCD sufferers delay seeking treatment due to a fear of how their obsessional themes will be perceived and/ or judged, even in therapy. I provide a safe, nonjudgmental space to address what are often considered "taboo" obsessive themes (i.e., harm, aggressive, sexual, pedophilic). Perinatal/ postpartum OCD sufferers, in particular, may experience fears of harming their baby. You don't have to live in isolation with these thoughts. We can bring them into the light of day together and reduce the hold they currently have on you.

Kirk Shelton
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
Obsessive-compulsive behaviors can feel overwhelming and controlling, but change is possible. I help clients break free from the cycle of obsession and compulsion, using CBT and EMDR to reprocess the underlying triggers and develop healthier coping mechanisms.

Dr. Alishia Kalos
Psychologist, PsyD, CST
Dr. Kalos has particular clinical experience working with OCD when symptoms center on sexuality, sexual orientation, gender, relationships, or fears about sexual thoughts and behaviors. Treatment may address intrusive or unwanted sexual thoughts, doubts about one’s sexual orientation or attraction, fears of being sexually harmful or inappropriate, reassurance seeking, checking, avoidance, and other compulsive responses. Therapy focuses on helping clients understand the OCD cycle and develop more flexible, effective ways of responding to intrusive thoughts and uncertainty without allowing fear to dictate their behavior or sense of identity.

Richard Scott, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Living with OCD can be exhausting — intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors can take over your day, disrupt your focus, and leave you feeling frustrated or ashamed. But OCD is treatable, and you don’t have to manage it on your own. Through evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), therapy can help you break free from the cycle, reduce anxiety, and reclaim your time and mental space. If you're ready to loosen OCD’s grip on your life, I’m here to help you take that first step.
