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/

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.
OCD is very common in children and teens. Children and teens may develop obsessions and compulsive behaviors centering on germs, sexuality, excessive focus on morality/religion, and fear of losing control and harming self or others.
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.
Obsession. Compulsion. Addiction. These are first cousins, thoughts and actions that seem to happen all on their own volition. In my work, there is always something good about these 3 amigos - or they would not be here in your life. The work is to discover what that is, and like in the serentiy prayer: Deal with what you can change, accept what you can't , and know the difference. Sometimes it means changing a belief, sometimes a field or environmental condition... sometimes taking care of some emotions hiding in dark places.
