OCD
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.

Bobby Newell
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, SEP
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard treatment for OCD. OCD can feel overwhelming—intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and repetitive behaviors that are hard to control. Together, we take a structured, step-by-step approach to help you face fears in a manageable way while reducing the urge to engage in compulsions. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and paced to help you build confidence as you learn that you can tolerate discomfort without it taking over your life. The goal is to help you break free from the OCD cycle and feel more in control.

Jennifer L Abel
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I use primarily exposure and response prevention (ERP). I've treated dozens of people with OCD. I've always been keenly interested in OCD. My review comparing SSRIs (anti-depressants that help OCD) and ERP was published in the peer reviewed journal Behaviour Research & Therapy. I found that ERP is more effective unless you are severely depressed or have poor insight. Most people with OCD, at some level, understand their fears are unwarranted but feel they can't stop and realize they have OCD. If this describes you then you are likely to respond well to ERP.
