Patrick Powers
Marriage and Family Therapist, PhD, LMFT
OCD is my passion and my first reason for becoming a therapist. I have extensive background in and have been certified by the International OCD Foundation and Massachusetts General Hospital in the use of gold standard treatments. I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) coupled with cognitive work, while taking care to consider and address life context and attachment issues at play for my clients. Treatment is difficult but I love playing the role of encouraging coach throughout the process. I also have a particular comfort with the sorts of obsessions people often feel terrified to bring up to anyone, including therapists. I love working with intrusive thoughts about anything- relationships, existential fears, sexual orientation, incest, pedophilia, harm...you name it. We really can talk about it. It's not a big deal.

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.

Melissa Kummer Dague
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC
OCD has the ability to confuse, isolate and control. It often goes undiagnosed for years, and many clients do see hope to manage symptoms. I am trained in centered modality of Inference Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) to address the symptoms of OCD without the use of exposure therapy. I would love to chat about how ICBT may be helpful to improve your symptoms, and quality of life.

Lisa H Lang, Ph.D.
Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC, LMFT, CCBT, CCHT
With obsessive-compulsive disorder, it`s as though the brain gets stuck on a particular thought, urge or behavior.
Obsessions are thoughts, and impulses that occur over and over again and seem to be out of control.
Obsessions are accompanied by a sense that things must be done in a way that is "just so"--perfectionism that becomes problematic.
People with OCD attempt to make their obsessions go away by performing compulsive behaviors.
Compulsions are acts performed over and over again.
The compulsive rituals are performed to obtain relief from the discomfort caused by the obsessive thoughts and impulses.
OCD symptoms can occur in people of all ages.
Normal worries and fears may increase during times of stress.
These symptoms become OCD when they persist, make no sense, seem out of control, and interfere with normal functioning.
Understand your symptoms and learn what to do about them by using cognitive behavioral skills.
The goal is to change your thought patterns to gain a sense of control and well-being.

46 Years Experience
Online in Laredo, TX Texas
Laredo is one of the most culturally unified US-Mexico border cities in the country — with a population that is over 95% Hispanic and where Spanish is the dominant language of daily life — making bilingual, bicultural therapists not a specialty but an essential baseline for meaningful access to care. The city's economy is driven by international trade and logistics, with one of the busiest land ports in the United States, and therapists frequently address the occupational stress of commercial transport workers alongside the immigration stress experienced by families maintaining ties on both sides of the border. Laredo Medical Center and the Laredo VA Outpatient Clinic provide institutional resources, while the therapy community overall is relatively sparse compared to the population's scale. Webb County's concentration of poverty and social stress amplifies the need for community-accessible mental health services.
