OCD
Live Laugh and Love Therapy| Jessica Munson
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC-D,CCATP, CAMAS-II, CCTP
I have been treating OCD through my entire career or 18 years as a therapist but I have seen it become more progressive over the past few years. I took a more specialized training in exposure and response prevention therapy to help folks confront their obsessive thinking, compulsions, and intrusive thoughts that have taken over their lives. I teach people to become comfortable talking about their thoughts, lay down the shame and fear of sharing them, and understanding the roots of where they come from so we can make them more manageable together. Learning to live with OCD is a passion and something I continue to work on specializing further in through my career.

OCD
Abby Leefer, LCSW-R - Perspectives Counseling of LI
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-R
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can involve persistent, intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals that feel difficult to control. These patterns can become time-consuming and interfere with daily functioning and overall well-being. Our therapists aim to provide a structured and supportive space to better understand how OCD operates and what maintains it. Together, we use evidence-based approaches to reduce symptoms, build tolerance to distress, and help you regain a greater sense of control in your life.

Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with.
If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like.
It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself.
Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.
