OCD
Dr. Colby Cohen-Archer
Psychologist, PhD
Do you experience intrusive unwanted and distressing images or thoughts? Feel like there are things you have to count, check, Google, or think through in order to feel better? OCD, especially when it shows up after childbirth, is often misunderstood, and can make every part of life harder. I use evidence based treatments, including ERP, to help you get free of the OCD voice. Therapy focuses on breaking unhelpful patterns, building confidence to face uncertainty, and identifying what is most important and meaningful to you. Therapy for OCD is both supportive and active. Together we will create a step by step plan to get your life back from OCD, and I will be with you every step of the way. A life of freedom from constant fear and time consuming rituals is possible!

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.

OCD
Grace in the Shadows
Licensed Professional Counselor, PhD, MDiv, MA, NCMHC, ALMHC, VALMHC, SCMHC, FLMHC, KYMHC, IDMHC
I address Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) with a compassionate and holistic approach, integrating psychological techniques with Christian principles. Recognizing the challenges of OCD, I create a therapeutic environment rooted in faith, incorporating prayer, scriptural reflection, and discussions on trust in God's plan. Evidence-based therapies such as Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) are utilized to help individuals manage obsessions and compulsions, while spiritual practices are integrated to support the healing process. I guide clients in finding spiritual meaning and coping mechanisms aligned with their faith. Encouraging individuals to surrender perfectionism and fears to God, I foster a balance between psychological strategies and reliance on faith to navigate the journey towards healing and recovery from OCD.

OCD
Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD, LP
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.

Lexington sits at the center of Kentucky's Bluegrass region with a character distinct from Louisville — the University of Kentucky drives a significant student and young professional population alongside a traditional agricultural and equestrian community. The city's proximity to Appalachia means therapists frequently encounter the mental health effects of the region's opioid crisis, intergenerational poverty, and community grief tied to economic decline. UK HealthCare — the University of Kentucky's academic medical system — provides institutional mental health resources, with private practices concentrated in Chevy Chase, Beaumont, and the Hamburg area. Lexington's horse industry also supports a niche clientele of equestrian athletes and industry professionals navigating performance pressure and career identity.
