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.

Dr. Cathy E. Pickett
Licensed Professional Counselor, LCMHC, LCA, CCTP, NCC
I work with clients experiencing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) by providing a compassionate, structured, and nonjudgmental environment where they can better understand their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Treatment may incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) when appropriate, to help clients recognize obsessive thought patterns, reduce compulsive behaviors and reassurance-seeking, and develop healthier ways of responding to anxiety and uncertainty. I also incorporate mindfulness, emotional regulation, and practical coping strategies to help clients separate intrusive thoughts from their identity and learn that having an unwanted thought does not mean they have to act on it. My goal is to help clients build confidence in managing anxiety, tolerate uncertainty, reduce the impact of OCD on everyday life and relationships, and move toward greater freedom and quality of life.
