Kelly McAleer
Psychologist, Psy.D.
I have experience working with adults with OCD, including primarily obsessional presentations often referred to as Pure O. My approach integrates ERP with acceptance-based and self-compassion strategies to help clients respond differently to intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsive patterns and reassurance-seeking, tolerate uncertainty, and relate to themselves with less judgment.

Johanna Wood, Leap Counseling and Consultation
Psychologist, PhD
I specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. My clients typically have tried therapy before, but have not seen much improvement. They continue living in fear, anxiety, and guilt, as their lives continue getting smaller and smaller. This is because OCD requires specialized treatment. Coping skills are great, but they can only get you so far. In fact, when it comes to OCD, they could be making things worse! The good news is, there are science-backed treatments for OCD with decades of research showing that they actually work. If you're ready to stop coping and start living, take a leap of faith and reach out.
My style is structured and balances use of the latest science with compassion and understanding. My goal is to make you feel heard, and feel challenged. I serve adults with primary issues of OCD, and I also address co-occurring anxiety disorders, depression, insomnia, body-focused repetitive behaviors, and trauma, using cognitive-behavioral therapies. I address all forms of OCD, but I have a special interest in scrupulosity (religious- and moral-based) OCD. I love helping people stop letting their OCD hijack their sources of meaning and get back to having faith in faith again.
