OCD is a chronic condition marked by intrusive, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or rituals (compulsions) performed to reduce anxiety. Our expert team helps clients break free from the OCD cycle, regain control, and build a healthier, more balanced life.

OCD includes persistent obsessions (thoughts, urges, images) such as contamination fears, fears of harm, or taboo thoughts, and compulsions like washing, checking, counting, or mental rituals. These patterns can become time-consuming and distressing, significantly interfering with work, relationships, and daily activities.

Symptoms include excessive handwashing, repeated checking of locks or appliances, counting or tapping rituals, need for symmetry, intrusive violent or sexual thoughts, compulsive reassurance seeking, avoidance of certain places or activities, and overwhelming anxiety when unable to perform rituals.

We use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard treatment for OCD. We also provide medication management, mindfulness-based strategies, family education, and support groups to create a well-rounded, personalized treatment plan for each client.
