OCD
Michael Zamrin
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, MSW, MA
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be an overwhelming and exhausting experience, often marked by persistent intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that feel impossible to control. Using techniques drawn from Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT), I help individuals understand how doubt and distorted reasoning patterns fuel their OCD, rather than focusing solely on the content of their obsessions. I-CBT offers a powerful alternative to traditional exposure-based approaches by targeting the root of obsessive thinking — the faulty inferences that drive the cycle. Together, we work to challenge these thinking errors, reduce reliance on compulsions, and rebuild trust in one's own perceptions. My goal is to help clients regain a sense of clarity, confidence, and freedom from the grip of OCD.

OCD
Dr. Alishia Kalos
Psychologist, PsyD, CST
Dr. Kalos has particular clinical experience working with OCD when symptoms center on sexuality, sexual orientation, gender, relationships, or fears about sexual thoughts and behaviors. Treatment may address intrusive or unwanted sexual thoughts, doubts about one’s sexual orientation or attraction, fears of being sexually harmful or inappropriate, reassurance seeking, checking, avoidance, and other compulsive responses. Therapy focuses on helping clients understand the OCD cycle and develop more flexible, effective ways of responding to intrusive thoughts and uncertainty without allowing fear to dictate their behavior or sense of identity.

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.

OCD
Karen Nadel
Psychologist, Psy.D.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, or OCD, involves having obsessive thinking patterns that can include unwanted thoughts, images or urges that make a person feel anxious or distressed.
Individuals who have OCD often have significant difficulty pushing away or ignoring these thoughts. Those with OCD also have compulsive behaviors which are an attempt to reverse the obsessive thoughts or urges by performing some sort of action.
Dr. Nadel utilizes the effective treatment of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) in the treatment of OCD. Dr. Nadel has been trained in ERP through the International OCD Foundation.

Danielle Farabaugh
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I work collaboratively with clients to understand how obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors affect their lives. Using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), we identify unhelpful patterns and practice new ways of responding to anxiety and uncertainty. Together, we build skills to reduce compulsions, manage intrusive thoughts, and regain a sense of control. My goal is to help clients find relief, confidence, and freedom from OCD’s grip.
