Kristee Barker
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW-S
I use a blend of ERP, DBT, and IFS to treat OCD. OCD is a cycle of intrusive thoughts, fear, and compulsions that can take over your life. I help you break that cycle with evidence‑based exposure work, practical skills for managing anxiety and urges, and deeper parts‑based healing to address the internal conflicts that keep OCD running. My approach is steady, compassionate, and direct. Together, we’ll build your ability to tolerate uncertainty, reduce compulsions, and reconnect with the parts of you that deserve relief and freedom.

OCD
Dr. Linda G. Ritchie, Ph.D.
Psychologist, Ph.D., LPC, LMFT, Certified Hypnotherapist
If you’re struggling with OCD, you may feel trapped in a cycle of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors that are difficult to control. You might recognize that the thoughts don’t make sense, yet still feel driven to check, repeat, or mentally review things to reduce anxiety. Over time, this can become exhausting, time-consuming, and frustrating—especially when it feels like the harder you try to stop, the stronger the urges become.
I help clients understand and change the patterns that keep OCD going. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), we work to identify the thought patterns and behaviors that reinforce the cycle. I incorporate structured strategies to help you gradually reduce compulsions and tolerate uncertainty, while using clinical hypnosis, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT/tapping), and NLP to address the underlying anxiety and automatic responses. I also integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you relate differently to intrusive thoughts—so they have less power over your behavior and your day-to-day life.
What’s often missing isn’t awareness—you likely already know the thoughts are irrational or excessive. What’s missing is a structured way to break the cycle of obsession and compulsion without increasing anxiety in the process. Without that, OCD tends to maintain itself, even when you’re highly motivated to change.
The fact that you’re here suggests you’re ready to approach this differently. If you’re willing to learn a new way of responding, I can help you reduce compulsions, manage intrusive thoughts more effectively, and regain a sense of control over your time, your mind, and your life.

OCD
Amazing Grace Psychiatric Services, PLLC
Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner, PMHNP, CNM, PMH-C
Intrusive thoughts are unwelcomed in our brain as much as an intruder is unwelcomed in our home. These thoughts increase anxiety to the point where a compulsive behavior develops in attempt to alleviate the anxiety. This relief is short-lived, however, and the cycle starts all over again. This is exhausting for the individual, and often is very misunderstood by those around them. Let's put an end to this cycle by discovering the source of what's causing it, and find the right therapeutic solution for you!

OCD
Dr. Jana Rundle
Psychologist, Psy.D., PMH-C
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting and frightening, especially when intrusive thoughts become difficult to control or ignore. Many people with OCD experience unwanted thoughts, images, or fears that feel disturbing or out of character, followed by urges to perform certain behaviors or mental rituals to reduce anxiety. These patterns can be especially distressing during major life changes, including pregnancy and the postpartum period. I work with individuals experiencing OCD inside and outside of the perinatal period, helping clients better understand how these intrusive thoughts and compulsions operate and how to respond to them in a healthier way. Using evidence-based treatments for OCD, therapy with me focuses on reducing the power of intrusive thoughts, breaking compulsive cycles, and helping you regain a greater sense of calm, confidence, and control in your daily life.
