OCD

What It Is

OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) involves persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) done to reduce anxiety. It's more than habits — it can take hours of a person's day and interfere with life.

Common Symptoms

  • Repetitive checking, cleaning, or counting
  • Fear of contamination or germs
  • Unwanted intrusive thoughts or mental images
  • Needing things to be "just right"
  • Feeling compelled to perform rituals to relieve distress

Why Getting Help Matters

OCD can feel exhausting and isolating, taking time and energy away from relationships, work, or self-care. With the right treatment, symptoms can be managed, obsessions lose their grip, and compulsions no longer control daily life.

How We Help

  • Comprehensive evaluation of symptoms and triggers
  • Medication management (SSRIs and adjunctive options)
  • Education about OCD as a brain-based disorder, not a choice
  • Collaboration with therapists trained in ERP (exposure and response prevention)
  • Tools for managing intrusive thoughts and breaking compulsive cycles

Freedom from obsessions and compulsions is possible.
