Healing OCD from Within: An Integrated IFS & EFT Approach
OCD can feel like a relentless, hijacking force—a cycle of fear, urgent demands, and exhausting compulsions that leaves you feeling disconnected from yourself. As a therapist trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), I offer a compassionate, non-pathologizing approach that goes beyond just managing symptoms.
With IFS, we won't fight your OCD; we will get to know it. We will treat the obsessions and compulsions as protective "parts" of your internal system—managers and firefighters that are trying to keep you safe from deep-seated fears or past pain (exiles). By helping you access your core "Self" (a place of calm, curiosity, and compassion), we can unblend from these intense parts, understand their positive intent, and help them trust you to manage life without extreme, rigid behaviors.
With EFT, we will focus on the emotional undertones—the shame, overwhelming anxiety, and, often, attachment-related fears that fuel the OCD. We will explore these raw, primary emotions to transform how you respond to uncertainty, building emotional regulation and creating a sense of inner security.
Together, this integrated approach helps you move from being a prisoner of your thoughts to leading your internal system with compassion, fostering lasting, self-driven healing.

Charles R. Davenport, Psy.D.
Psychologist, Licensed Psychologist
Dr. Charles R. Davenport offers specialized treatment for individuals struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). With extensive experience in managing OCD, Dr. Davenport utilizes evidence-based therapies to help clients reduce their symptoms and improve their quality of life.
OCD is characterized by intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) that can significantly interfere with daily functioning. Dr. Davenport employs cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), particularly Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), to help clients confront their fears and reduce compulsive behaviors. This approach is highly effective in breaking the cycle of obsessions and compulsions.
In addition to CBT and ERP, Dr. Davenport integrates mindfulness techniques to help clients manage anxiety and stay grounded in the present moment. His holistic approach ensures that treatment is tailored to each client’s unique needs, promoting long-term recovery and emotional well-being.
Dr. Davenport provides a supportive and empathetic therapeutic environment where clients can feel safe to explore their thoughts and behaviors. He also offers telehealth services in over 40 states, making it convenient for clients to access high-quality care from the comfort of their own homes. Dr. Davenport is dedicated to helping individuals with OCD regain control of their lives and achieve lasting relief from their symptoms.
