OCD
Pamela Angel
Counselor/Therapist, LPC
I specialize in OCD because it is a highly misunderstood and often misdiagnosed condition that demands specialized, evidence-based care to treat effectively. While "talk therapy" can sometimes worsen symptoms, specialized Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard of care—provides tangible, life-changing results.
I am passionate about helping clients break the cycle of obsession and compulsion, shifting them from debilitating fear to confidence and freedom. My focus is on providing a safe, stigma-free space for individuals to tackle their hardest fears and regain control of their lives.

OCD
Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP or ERP). This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for OCD available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create obsessive thinking and emotional distress and how to simultaneously resist acting on urges to engage in your compulsive behavior. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming compulsive urges. People with OCD are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

OCD
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.
