Jullee Capshaw
Counselor/Therapist, MA, LCMHC, NCC
OCD is an anxiety disorder. OCD is comprised of obsessive thoughts which result in anxiety, and compulsive behaviors used to reduce the anxiety. I treat OCD using evidenced-based practice(s). I assess for OCD by identifying obsessive thoughts, frequency of obsessive thoughts, and the distress caused by the thoughts, as well as compulsive behaviors, frequency of behaviors, and difficulty controlling the behaviors. Then, the client and I develop a plan to reduce obsessive thoughts and behaviors, and increase knowledge of alternative coping mechanisms.

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.

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.
