Katherine Rabinowitz
Licensed Psychoanalyst, LP, M.A., NCPsyA
OCD is bandied about a lot these days. Sometimes it's confused with OCPD, and they are not the same thing. As this is to be a short description of the issue, the best I can do is to say that OCD is an anxiety disorder and OCPD is a personality disorder. There is some overlap. Both vary in severity, and difficulty hauling oneself out of. That stuckness is part of the disorder itself. To understand it better I suggest you read that part on my website that explains it in greater detail. It's under the tab "What's Troubling You."considerably greater detail.

April Tettemer
Art Therapist, LCAT
OCD doesn't always look like washing your hands x amount of times. OCD can be intrusive thoughts, OCD can be false belief systems created to make life feel safer to navigate, OCD can be reassurance seeking in a way that creates distance from ourselves and others. I can help the client identify the obsessions and compulsions they are dealing with and work to reduce the compulsive behavior and obsessive thoughts.

Registered Psychotherapist, Gestalt Therapist , M.B.A.
Obsession. Compulsion. Addiction. These are first cousins, thoughts and actions that seem to happen all on their own volition. In my work, there is always something good about these 3 amigos - or they would not be here in your life. The work is to discover what that is, and like in the serentiy prayer: Deal with what you can change, accept what you can't , and know the difference. Sometimes it means changing a belief, sometimes a field or environmental condition... sometimes taking care of some emotions hiding in dark places.
