Josh Murray- Hopeful Minds
Psychologist, MA, LLP
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a condition in which you have frequent unwanted thoughts and sensations (obsessions) that cause you to perform repetitive behaviors (compulsions). The repetitive behaviors can significantly interfere with social interactions and performing daily tasks.
OCD is usually a life-long (chronic) condition, but symptoms can come and go over time.
Everyone experiences obsessions and compulsions at some point. For example, it’s common to occasionally double-check the stove or the locks. People also often use the phrases “obsessing” and “obsessed” very casually in everyday conversations. But OCD is more extreme. It can take up hours of a person’s day. It gets in the way of normal life and activities. Obsessions in OCD are unwanted, and people with OCD don’t enjoy performing compulsive behaviors.
The most common treatment plan for OCD involves psychotherapy (talk therapy) and medication.
If this treatment doesn’t help your OCD symptoms and your symptoms are severe, your provider may recommend transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

Matthew Syzdek
Psychologist, PhD, LP, MBA
If you can't turn off your mind and your thoughts are taking over your life, there is a path forward towards a more fulfilling life. Don't gamble when choosing a therapist. You deserve a psychologist who will adapt the best science to your specific needs and goals. Many therapists themselves are burned out and can't give the best care to their clients. Dr Syzdek built a small boutique practice where he limits the number of clients he treats, so he can give his clients the time, thought, and dedication that they deserve. Dr Syzdek combines compassion with the science of behavior change to help you make the the difficult decisions in life and take action, so you can live a happier life, thrive at work, love your relationships, and have fun again. Dr Syzdek treats OCD and related conditions typically using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and exposure therapies. These approaches combine mindfulness, acceptance, and cognitive strategies to help you live your life again and find relief from the the struggle.

Carrie Gauthier
Hypnotherapist, Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist, CCHt
With OCD, we typically regress to the root cause memory in a hypnotic regression, clear and process the emotional block, and pave the way forward with hypnotic programming customized to rewire you to replace the outdated programming with new healthy, calm, and desirable way of being. By literally installing new hardware, we can circumvent unhealthy impulses before they can happen, and after repeated playback of your hypnotic recording, you are carving new neural pathways with the new commands we program. Before long, the new way becomes automatic and intuitive, and you won't even have to think about it. With any hypnotic regression we do, we uncover root cause and reverse-engineer our way to the desired, healthy ways of being where you have control of your mind and feel safe again. Where you are calm and centered, organized and prepared. You are thoughtful and measured, and back to harmony and peace. I provide you with tools also you can use if you feel triggered to shift your brainwave state in only a few minutes. You will benefit from feeling emotionally regulated, comfortable in your own skin, and safe in your own mind again.
