Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I use primarily exposure and response prevention (ERP). I've treated dozens of people with OCD. I've always been keenly interested in OCD. My review comparing SSRIs (anti-depressants that help OCD) and ERP was published in the peer reviewed journal Behaviour Research & Therapy. I found that ERP is more effective unless you are severely depressed or have poor insight. Most people with OCD, at some level, understand their fears are unwarranted but feel they can't stop and realize they have OCD. If this describes you then you are likely to respond well to ERP.

Psychologist, Psy.D
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can create constant, overwhelming thoughts (obsessions) and lead to repetitive behaviors (compulsions) as a way to reduce anxiety. At Stress & Anxiety Services, we specialize in treating OCD using evidence-based therapies that are proven to help individuals regain control and reduce the impact of OCD on their lives. Our approach includes: Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): The gold-standard treatment for OCD, where individuals gradually face their fears while learning to resist engaging in compulsive behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and challenge obsessive thoughts and the compulsive behaviors they trigger, leading to healthier thinking patterns. -Mindfulness Techniques: Encourages awareness and acceptance of distressing thoughts without acting on them, reducing the power of obsessions. Through secure telehealth services, we offer expert OCD treatment wherever you are. With our tailored approach, you can work towards reducing compulsive behaviors and living a more peaceful, fulfilling life.

Jameeka Moore
Psychologist, PsyD
Are you finding yourself growing increasingly frustrated with OCDs demands and limitations that it places on your life? Are your relationships or other areas of your life suffering because of the behaviors that you feel compelled to do or because of your inability to show up in the ways that you would like. Are you finding it difficult to break the cycle out of the fear of the anxiety and uncertainty that you would experience if you did not comply? I would like to help you break the cycle of giving in to your OCD. I want to help you better understand OCDs tricks and develop willingness and courage to help you learn to challenge OCD so that you can live in accordance with your values. I use Exposure and Response Prevention, which is an effective treatment approach that can help you better manage your anxiety and regain areas of your life that have been impacted due to OCD.
