Desiree Woehrle
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SIFI
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is an anxiety disorder that causes us to get stuck repeating certain behaviors or thoughts in such a way that our life begins to get thrown off. Stress, security, and safety are often triggers for obsessive thoughts and compulsions. We work extra hard to figure out or ensure that we or others are okay, even if said thoughts and activities aren't actually correlated with increased safety. We may notice the flawed logic and still find it difficult to part with the thought and/or behavior. At times, it can caused by a traumatic event, unmet need or an anxious need for control. Whatever the reason, a free discovery call will allow us to ensure we're the right match for tackling this pattern and helping you release all the things that are no longer serving you.

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.

Compulsions and anxiety go hand in hand. If someone is nervous about something going wrong, they’ll become obsessed with the idea and eventually convince themselves that they must stop the negative situation from happening. Unfortunately, this mindset can be harmful, however if the client can connect the dots of their anxiety to their behavior, they will begin to see the faulty perception of their actions
