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.

Mid-Atlantic Psychological Services
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors can become exhausting and interfere with everyday life. I help clients understand how anxiety, intrusive thoughts, and repetitive behaviors can reinforce one another, while developing strategies to reduce their impact and build greater flexibility in responding to distress. Using evidence-based treatments like exposure and response prevention (ERP), we see improvement, over time.

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.
