Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Wolcott, NY

Limited availability- Morning appointments only! I specialize in, and am passionate about, treating a range of anxiety disorders, as well as adjustment issues and trauma. If you struggle with anxiety or OCD, you may have fears that persist no matter what you try. Or you may feel stuck in patterns that you cannot control, or unable to stop certain behaviors even though some part of you desperately wants to stop. And while I cannot promise to erase the thoughts you are having, I can help you to change your relationship with them and reduce their ability to make your life difficult. There is hope.

Welcome. Life can become overwhelming sometimes ( understatement! ). My sessions are authentic, very interactive, empathetic, and solution focused. You will get more clarity on the issues you're facing, have more self-awareness, and insights(!), feel well supported, learn strategies to use unique to you, and grow a lot. I am experienced in successfully treating a variety of issues: Stress, Anxiety or Panic, Adapting to change, Depression, Bi-Polar, OCD, Trauma/PTSD, Fear, Spectrum Disorder, Addictions, Issues in Divorce/pre-div, Survivors of Abuse & Narcissistic Abuse, or clients who are/were psycho-emotionally violated by others.

I will help you identify your strengths in order to address your issues and concerns. Positive psychology is practiced here. Specialities are treatment for depression, anxiety, grief, PTSD, and weight issues. Additional areas include anger management, obsessive-compulsive behaviors, chronic pain, inner-child healing, and binge eating. I use empirically supported, traditional talk therapy, plus expressive arts, and movement. Approaches include cognitive-behavioral, interpersonal, client-centered therapy, experiential-Gestalt, mindfulness techniques and more.

I am a psychoanalytic and existential psychologist. I am best suited to working with people who are motivated to question themselves, highly open to exploration, and willing to tolerate ambiguity and forego ready-made advice. If you feel ready to do the "deep" work that you may have avoided in therapy before, we may be a good match. Please see my website at www.michaelmillerphd.com for more information.

My patients are interested in evidence-based approaches to address problems and to reach goals. In some cases--especially with kids--there are questions regarding a specific diagnosis (e.g., Autism). Patients choose to work with me so that they can have an experienced professional help them implement effective strategies. Parents who work with me are interested in learning additional approaches to help their child, whether addressing anxiety, mood, or disruptive behaviors. I team up with and collaborate with patients/parents, because when we work together, we can achieve meaningful change!

I focus on empowering individuals in aligning with their true selves and reaching their fullest potential, as well as supporting couples or families through difficult times.

My favorite part of being a therapist is the continuously evolving relationship that I foster with my clients. I love learning about my clients— everything that makes them who they are, from their interests to their cultural influences to their friends and family, and how all of this impacts the way they view the world. I am passionate about assisting clients who suffer from anxiety, OCD, and relationship issues but also enjoy working with clients with a variety of other concerns including addictions, self-esteem, trauma, and more. I provide counseling that is culturally competent and LGBTQ+ affirming.

My passion is treating severe OCD and anxiety. My clients joke that I am "not a talk therapist, but a 'do' therapist," as sessions are often very active and skills focused. I view therapy as a supportive environment where I can help clients face their fears. I only provide evidence-based treatments (methods proven by research to be more effective than general talk therapy), as my goal is to help people get results as soon as possible.

Have you ever thought to yourself, "I shouldn't feel this way, it doesn't make sense?" You are not alone. Often, we try to use rational thinking to understand emotional distress.

I specialize in trauma, substance use disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorders; working with teens and adults.
