Nour Counseling
Counselor/Therapist
OCD is often misunderstood as being about neatness or liking things a certain way—but for people actually living with it, it can feel relentless. Intrusive thoughts that don’t match your values, urges that don’t make sense, and mental or behavioral rituals that temporarily reduce anxiety but keep the cycle going. It can be exhausting, confusing, and isolating—especially when the content of the thoughts feels disturbing or hard to talk about. Many people spend a lot of time trying to manage or hide it, while also questioning themselves in the process.
At Nour Counseling, we take OCD seriously and we treat it directly. We help you understand how the OCD cycle works—why the thoughts stick, why the anxiety spikes, and how compulsions reinforce the pattern. From there, we use structured, evidence-based approaches to help you gradually face what feels uncomfortable without relying on rituals, so your brain can learn something different. We also tailor this work to your real life, taking into account your values, your environment, and the cultural or religious context that may shape how OCD shows up for you. This is active, collaborative work focused on helping you feel less controlled by the cycle and more able to move through your life with freedom and clarity.

Charles R. Davenport, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Charles R. Davenport offers specialized treatment for individuals struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). With extensive experience in managing OCD, Dr. Davenport utilizes evidence-based therapies to help clients reduce their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
OCD is characterized by intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) that can significantly interfere with daily functioning. Dr. Davenport employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), particularly Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), to help clients confront their fears and reduce compulsive behaviors. This approach is highly effective in breaking the cycle of obsessions and compulsions.
In addition to CBT and ERP, Dr. Davenport integrates mindfulness techniques to help clients manage anxiety and stay grounded in the present moment. His holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each client’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery and emotional well-being.
Dr. Davenport provides a supportive and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and behaviors. He also offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Dr. Davenport is dedicated to helping individuals with OCD regain control of their lives and achieve lasting relief from their symptoms.

Dr. Adam Shafer (Chicago, IL)
Psychologist, Psy. D., M.A.
Being restricted by intense worries about oneself and others can lead people into rigid routines that function to alleviate the intensity of their inner tensions, if only for a short time. People who are unable to break out from these patterns can become self-critical and lose a sense of hope that can be debilitating. It is important to remind ourselves in these instances that things can improve and that sometimes it may only take the effort to reach out for help.
