OCD is an intense and extreme form of anxiety that often becomes debilitating to normal everyday functioning. Overcoming OCD is possible through retraining the brain to correct the mental tricks and misconceptions, giving you control back over your life.

Joe Groninga
Psychologist, PsyD, LP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be a very debilitating set of symptoms and is something for which I use a therapy called Exposure and Response Prevention (ExRP or ERP). This therapy is widely considered to be the most effective treatment for OCD available. I will teach you how to approach situations that create obsessive thinking and emotional distress and how to simultaneously resist acting on urges to engage in your compulsive behavior. The result is the ability to be in these situations with significantly less distress and without overwhelming compulsive urges. People with OCD are typically amazed at what they can achieve through this therapy.

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.
