Goody Counseling Services
Licensed Professional Counselor
At GCS, we specialize in the treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. OCD can look like repetitive unwanted thoughts, constant checking, avoidance, and feeling stuck in a mental "loop. It is a very distressing pattern. Here at GCS, we use a combination of Exposure Response Prevention, Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and talk therapy to treat OCD. We can help you to break out of the mental "loop" and get back to living life according to your true, unique values!

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.

Dr. Thomas Ballas
Psychologist, PhD; PSYPACT
I am a clinical psychologist with specialized expertise in treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). My diverse professional background includes working in hospital settings, private practice, and serving as a medical officer in the U.S. Army. I refined my specialization in OCD and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) through training with renowned OCD expert Dr. Steven Phillipson at the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy.
These experiences have equipped me with a deep understanding of complex mental health concerns and a commitment to delivering effective, evidence-based care. My goal is to help you break free from unhelpful patterns, enhance your emotional well-being, and move toward a more balanced and fulfilling life. Together, we’ll develop an approach tailored to your unique needs, ensuring you feel supported every step of the way.
