OCD
Blair Pallas
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Living with OCD often feels like a lifelong search for a certainty that never arrives. No matter how many times you try to answer a 'what-if' thought, ignore a fear, or seek reassurance, the urge always demands more. In our work together, I help you break these anxiety-driven patterns using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—a practical, evidence-based approach that helps you stay in the driver's seat.
Through a mix of education, skills building and proven theraputic models, I walk alongside you as you learn to navigate the very uncertainty that at times feels impossible to handle. We don’t just talk about the cycle; we work together to change your response to it in real-time. Step by step, you’ll learn to make space for the unknown, reclaiming your time and energy to build a life that feels much bigger and freer than the one OCD has allowed you.

CHRISTIE BAUR PSYCHOTHERAPY
Counselor/Therapist, MS, LPC
Living with OCD can feel exhausting and frankly, painful. The intrusive thoughts, the “what ifs,” the rituals that take over your day—it can all leave you feeling stuck in a loop you can’t get out of. But OCD is treatable, and you don’t have to manage it alone.
In therapy, we’ll work together to understand the patterns that keep you feeling trapped and build tools that help you get your life back. Using evidence-based approaches like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), cognitive-behavioral strategies, and a lot of compassion, we’ll slowly retrain your brain to feel safer and more in control. With therapy you'll learn how to challenge intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsive behaviors, and create more space for the things that actually matter to you—not the fears or urges that feel so loud right now.
Whether your OCD shows up through checking, cleaning, intrusive images, rumination, reassurance seeking, perfectionism, or fears you’ve never said out loud, therapy is a place where you can finally talk about it without judgment.
