OCD is not really an issue if you know how to deal with it. I have been helping my clients with this issue, administering meditation and CBT. My clients with this disorder are getting resilient in no time.
We have many therapists who are experienced in working with OCD. Please take a look at our general statement here and our website: https://talkingworkscounseling.com/
I work with people with obsessions and compulsions to help manage symptoms, improve quality of life, and especially to find more self-compassion and understanding. I'm a compassionate and culturally-competent therapist and counselor, with an interest in working with individuals and couples including on all kinds of issues. I believe we can all experience helping people move towards a better and healthier life. I'm trained in DBT, CBT, compassion focused therapy and couples work, and I especially enjoy working with people bringing issues concerning race, culture, religion and spirituality. I offer a free 15-minute consultation with anyone interested in working with me, and I look forward to speaking with you about what you want to accomplish in therapy.
OCD is bandied about a lot these days. Sometimes it's confused with OCPD, and they are not the same thing. As this is to be a short description of the issue, the best I can do is to say that OCD is an anxiety disorder and OCPD is a personality disorder. There is some overlap. Both vary in severity, and difficulty hauling oneself out of. That stuckness is part of the disorder itself. To understand it better I suggest you read that part on my website that explains it in greater detail. It's under the tab "What's Troubling You."considerably greater detail.
FREE consultations! Are you struggling with OCD? I strongly believe in the power of therapy to help you manage its symptoms and work towards building brighter days ahead.
OCD can feel overwhelming, though it is treatable with effective therapy. Using techniques and strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Exposure and Response Prevention, we'll work together to identify and overcome the patterns of thoughts and behaviors that keep you from being where you want to be in life.

I use cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) along with Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), all within a positive and humanistic therapeutic environment to help people with OCD. We'll work together to help you overcome your symptoms and feel more in control. These methods are proven and powerful, and many people find some relief early in treatment.
