Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Obsessional thoughts and uncontrollable compulsions can be incredibly stressful, unsettling, and make a person feel like they have little say over their life. I have been trained in the gold standard treatment for OCD called Exposure and Response Prevention (Ex/RP for short), which helps people to overcome their fears without relying on compulsions to get through the day.

I offer evidence-based approaches for OCD & anxiety along with meaning & narrative therapeutic activities. These include CBT, ERP, ACT, & i-CBT.

I have a passion for supporting people diagnosed with OCD. What can be a debilitating and hopeless situation can be met with a strong tool in Exposure Response Prevention (ERP.) This is an evidence based, exposure therapy, that has been found to be extremely efficacious in extinguishing rituals but reducing anxiety as well. If you are interested in taking control of your OCD, I am interested in meeting you!

I have intensive training from the International OCD Foundation’s Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI) in Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) which is the gold standard in support with OCD and some anxiety experiences as well as training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy exposure based work for anxiety and OCD.

Im trained in ExRP (formerly known as ERP). I'd love to guide you through the process of exposures so you can live a life free from intrusive, unwanted thoughts, and compulsive behavior.

OCD is one of the most complex and, at times, debilitating disorders. In the community, it is often called "complex" anxiety and normally involves intrusive thoughts that are overwhelming accompanied by safety checking. There are many subtypes of OCD recognized by the community such as Harm OCD, Religious OCD, Contamination OCD, among others. Research has shown that the most effective approach to OCD is Exposure-Response Prevention, aimed at reconsolidating memories around fears.

In the practice, we use mindfulness based CBT with ERP therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which allows you to learn ways to resource anxiety and fears between sessions and use the learned skills as coping tools while engaging in your exposure plans. The work you do in therapy is vital to your life outside of our sessions.

I will help you explore the internal and external factors that drive obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors to help you break free of these and live a more grounded life.

Therapists in our practice utilize evidenced based techniques for OCD, such as, Exposure Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and I-CBT. Clients will learn how to manage distress around thoughts without compulsive behaviors, recognize intrusive thoughts, habituate (lower anxiety) around thoughts. Therapists at Mosaic Minds have experience around OCD themes of contamination, sexual obsessions, harm obsessions, symmetry/just right themes, scrupulosity, and more.

I utilize a CBT approach by understanding the client's thoughts behind each compulson. I have them create a list of their compulsions and obsessive thoughts so they can better understand how prominent the OCD is in their life, and what it looks like as a whole. I work with them to identify the trigger, thought, or situation provoking their OCD. I utilize a variety of different worksheets, exercises, and techniques to challenge, cope with, and decrease the OCD prevalence.
