OCD therapists in Manchester, New Hampshire NH
Ellen Ronka
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC
I believe that OCD -- no matter the content of obsessions -- is a coping mechanism to distract from deeper distress. The key is to find that root source of distress. I use my well-developed intuitive sense to look for those deeper causes and then use energy psychology methods to resolve the underlying experiences and/or emotional conflicts that created the need for obsessing, thereby relieving it. ERP only goes so deep -- it addresses the OCD behavior, which is necessary in severe cases, but doesn't necessarily resolve the root cause. The mindbody model for healing is an effective approach for OCD, making my Minding-The-Body Healing Group is an excellent choice for those with OCD.

When this is a presentation for our patients, we look to better understand what may be contributing to this. If this is something that wants to be addressed, and if so, how and when. Pacing is the key here.

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.
