Maybe you've tried everything, but still feel depressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. Old behaviors continue, & are impacting your relationships & day-to-day life. You want to be free from your past, but don’t know how to let go or move on. Reaching out for help is the hardest first step. I am here to help. I know your struggle is real & I'll work with you to develop deeper understanding of what is keeping you from living the life you want. In our sessions, you can expect me to be relational; clients have described me as warm, funny, & nonjudgmental. We'll set goals in the first session to add direction to the therapeutic process.

Sometimes life hands us experiences we didn't ask for, don't want, & don’t feel equipped to handle. Filled with anxiety or surrounded by loss, it can feel like there is nowhere to turn. You want to be successful, have good relationships with friends & family, contribute meaningfully to the world & even have some fun. Instead you may find yourself struggling to get out of bed in the morning, cycling through negative thoughts, overwhelmed with hopelessness, or even sabotaging work or relationships. Sometimes emotions get so big that we defend ourselves against them, building walls that often lead to numbness, anxiety and depression.

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.
