Dr. Mike Strand
Psychologist, PsyD
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) traps you in a cycle of repetitive thoughts and behaviors, stealing moments of peace and creating barriers to living freely. The constant battle with uncertainty and the need for control can feel overwhelming, as if your own mind is both your sanctuary and prison. My specialized OCD treatment offers a pathway out, equipping you with strategies to break free from these cycles, regain control, and embrace the spontaneity of life with confidence.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP or ERP). This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for OCD available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create obsessive thinking and emotional distress and how to simultaneously resist acting on urges to engage in your compulsive behavior. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming compulsive urges. People with OCD are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

Is OCD putting a strain on your relationship? You’re not alone. Think of OCD as a relentless bully, constantly dictating how you should act—or else. But this bully doesn’t just target you; it infiltrates your relationship, too. Your partner may feel pressured to follow certain behaviors dictated by OCD, and over time, that pressure can turn into frustration or resentment. When your partner pushes back, it might feel like hostility toward you. Now, you’re not only struggling with intrusive thoughts and anxiety but also the pain of feeling unsupported or blamed in your relationship. If this is your experience, working with a couple therapist that fully understands the nature of OCD is essential. Couple therapy can help you and your partner to develop a shared understanding of how to best respond when OCD shows up, so that you are united in taking a stand against this bully, rather than letting it come between you.

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.

Counselor/Therapist, LPC, LCPC, LCMHC
OCD thrives on certainty-seeking and avoidance, and it can take over far more of your life than the outside world ever sees. We use targeted, evidence-based approaches to help you build a different relationship with intrusive thoughts — one that doesn't require you to obey them.

Reno's rapid growth — driven by a wave of tech and logistics companies relocating from California, anchored by facilities from Tesla, Apple, and Amazon — has transformed a gambling-and-entertainment city into a more economically diverse metro, and its therapy community is evolving to serve both the long-established casino workforce and a growing population of tech transplants. The city's proximity to the Sierra Nevada and outdoor recreation culture attracts a younger, health-conscious demographic who are generally comfortable seeking therapy, while the older gaming-industry workforce may carry greater stigma around help-seeking. Renown Health and the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine provide institutional mental health resources alongside a growing private therapy community. Reno's significant homeless population and substance use challenges mean therapists specializing in co-occurring disorders serve an especially important community role.
