OCD
Dr. Millie C. Astin
Psychologist, Ph.D.
OCD can manifest in so many different ways. Obsessive thoughts are overwhelming. Compulsive rituals bring temporary relief, but obsessions eventually return resulting in more rituals. It can be a devastating cycle and often leads to difficulty in living a productive life. The gold standard for OCD treatment (sometimes in combination with medication) is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). ERP helps you face your obsessions and eliminate compulsive rituals.

Brian McCormack (Connemara Counseling)
Counselor/Therapist, LPC-A/LMHCA
I provide assessment and treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), helping individuals manage intrusive thoughts and reduce compulsive behaviors that interfere with daily functioning. Using evidence-based approaches such as exposure and response prevention (ERP) and cognitive-behavioral therapy, I support clients in building tolerance to anxiety, challenging unhelpful thought patterns, and regaining a sense of control. My work focuses on reducing symptom severity, improving flexibility in thinking and behavior, and empowering clients to live more freely and confidently.

OCD
Greta Carlson, Psy.D., ABPP
Psychologist, Licensed Clinical Psychologist
I provide prolonged exposure (PE) therapy for OCD. In this type of treatment, you learn skills to regulate anxiety as it arises in response to environmental triggers, and work on using these skills in session when faced with a compulsion-triggering stimulus. We focus on psychoeducation on obsessional thinking and compulsive behavior patterns, and gradually work with you to use skills instead of engaging in compulsions, so you can have more time and and attention for your relationships, interests, and passions.

Abilene is a West Texas city home to Dyess Air Force Base—host of a B-1 Lancer bomber wing—as well as three Christian universities: Hardin-Simmons University, Abilene Christian University, and McMurry University, giving the city a distinctive identity anchored by military service and faith-based education. The strong evangelical Christian cultural context shapes how mental health is discussed and accessed in the community, with many residents preferring faith-integrated therapy or pastoral counseling as a primary mode of support. Military and veteran mental health needs—particularly trauma, PTSD, and family stress—are a significant part of the Abilene therapy landscape, and the city's position in remote West Texas means that access to specialist care can require telehealth or significant travel. Common therapy concerns include faith and mental health, military service and transition stress, anxiety, depression, and the challenges of living in a close-knit, religiously conservative community in an isolated regional city.
