Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Therapy
Free yourself from the cycle of intrusive thoughts and rituals. Find clarity, peace, and relief.
What Is OCD?
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is more than being neat, organized, or liking things a certain way. It involves unwanted, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals (compulsions) that are meant to reduce anxiety but often create more distress over time. These cycles can feel exhausting, overwhelming, and confusing.
People with OCD often know their thoughts or actions don’t make logical sense—but they still feel powerless to stop them. Therapy helps break that cycle.
Signs You May Be Struggling with OCD
OCD can look different in everyone and often goes unrecognized or misdiagnosed. You might experience:
-
Intrusive, unwanted thoughts that feel disturbing, uncomfortable, or hard to control
-
A need to perform rituals or behaviors to “neutralize” a thought or prevent something bad from happening
-
Repetitive behaviors like checking, counting, cleaning, or organizing
-
Mental compulsions like silent praying, repeating phrases, or overanalyzing conversations
-
Intense fear around contamination, harming others, making a mistake, or not being “just right”
-
Avoidance of certain places, people, or situations due to fear or anxiety
OCD is not a personality flaw—it’s a treatable mental health condition. Left unaddressed, it can interfere with daily life, relationships, school, and work.
