Adolescent and Adult anxiety is my thing! So many people don’t understand how powerless anxiety can make you feel. We will work together to develop new tools to help create the peace and happiness you are looking for. My favorite review from a client starts like this: “ I think about you all the time! I’m sure at times it didn’t seem like I was listening but your words and lessons are ones I treasure dearly and live by daily. You’re like my zen subconscious I turn to when things get prickly. Thank you for believing in me when I couldn’t believe in myself”

Outwardly you seem to have it together, while anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or plain old self-loathing drain your battery more than anyone could guess. Or maybe it’s depression you keep hidden with excuses and isolation. Or a loss of identity that happened when something major shifted and you no longer fit where you used to fit. You’d appreciate humor in your sessions, and prefer warmth instead a blank slate of clinical detachment, but you especially don’t want to feel rushed, pressured, or “evaluated”. Maybe your story feels impossibly complex, maybe inconsistent, maybe you feel two opposite ways at the same time. I get it.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists

How long does OCD treatment take?

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.

What happens if OCD is not treated?

Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.

Are there medications for OCD?

Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.

Can OCD come back after treatment?

Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
