Seattle, Washington therapist: Aaron Kapin, somatic experiencing practitioner
OCD

Aaron Kapin

Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with. If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like. It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself. Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania therapist: Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness, psychologist

Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness

Psychologist, PhD, JD
Not all therapists provide evidence-based therapies, and not all therapists who claim to provide CBT are specially trained in this approach. The Center for Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness team consists of doctoral-level clinicians who are highly trained experts in cognitive behavioral therapies. We are also trained in tailoring your treatment to your individual needs, so you can be sure you are receiving highly individualized care while also benefiting from the techniques that are proven to work.

Nashville, Tennessee therapist: Dr. Joe Rustum, psychologist
OCD

Dr. Joe Rustum

Psychologist, PsyD, License Psychologist
I help clients struggling with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, reassurance-seeking, checking, rumination, and difficulty tolerating uncertainty. OCD can be exhausting and can interfere with work, relationships, and daily life, even when someone appears highly capable on the outside. In therapy, we focus on reducing avoidance, building tolerance for uncertainty, and responding to intrusive thoughts in healthier ways. My goal is to help clients regain flexibility, confidence, and a greater sense of control.  
9 Years Experience
Online in Columbia, MO
Columbia is home to the University of Missouri, the flagship state university, as well as several other colleges, giving it a pronounced college-town character and a mental health landscape significantly shaped by the needs of a large and diverse student population navigating academic pressure, identity, and the transition to adulthood. The MU School of Health Professions and Missouri Psychiatric Center contribute to the city's mental health professional resources, and a well-developed private therapy sector serves both the university community and permanent residents. The city has a generally progressive and intellectually engaged culture with a positive attitude toward therapy, and LGBTQ+ affirmative care is more accessible here than in many other parts of Missouri. Common therapy concerns include student mental health, academic and identity stress, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and the particular experiences of a university community navigating complex social terrain in a politically divided state.
