Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)- a type of CBT- is the gold-standard treatment for OCD. We use ERP to treat all varieties of OCD, including contamination OCD, intrusive thoughts, perfectionism, symmetry OCD, harm OCD, scrupulosity OCD, and more.
We work with individuals with OCD, and use Exposure and Response Prevention in our approach, which is the treatment for OCD with the most research supported to date.
OCD can be paralyzing and hijack your life. Skills from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help you change your relationship to obsessive thoughts and channel your behaviors toward living your values more fully.

I work with clients who struggle with ocd by assisting client in learning to understand and reframe intrusive thoughts that are triggered by racing thoughts. I work with clients to recognize the instructive thoughts and replace them with a corrective/positive reframe. In addition, I work with the client in thought release practice.
