Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

You don’t have to live as a hostage to your own internal experiences.

OCD can take over your day to day life,

demanding attention, energy, and constant reassurance. OCD can make it seem like the only way to find relief is to perform rituals, but that relief is temporary—and the cycle always returns. If you’re living with OCD, you know how exhausting it is to feel at war with your own mind. Intrusive thoughts, compulsions, and the need to neutralize discomfort can dominate your whole existence,  leaving little room for anything else.
But there’s hope. Together in therapy, we’ll explore ways to interrupt those patterns and help you have more agency in the face of distress. 

Picture a life where you can notice compulsions, intrusive thoughts, and bodily sensations without feeling the need to act on them.

Mindfulness

CBT/ERP

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is a highly effective, evidence-based approach for treating Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder(OCD). Rather than trying to eliminate intrusive thoughts or compulsive behaviors, ACT helps individuals change their relationship with these experiences and generate more cognitive flexibility. 

Mindfulness is a helpful and empowering approach for managing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). It encourages a greater sense of awareness and acceptance of thoughts and feelings without judgment. By practicing mindfulness, individuals can feel less overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts and begin to detach from the pull of reactive behaviors.  

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the gold-standard treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder(OCD). As a structured form of therapy, ERP involves gradually exposing individuals to their fears while helping them resist compulsive behaviors. Over time, this process reduces anxiety and breaks the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. 

I provide support to individuals who struggle with OCD, Anxiety and difficulties with self esteem or self actualization.
