What is OCD and How Can Therapy Help?

Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) that individuals feel compelled to perform. These symptoms can significantly impact daily life, making it difficult to function at work, maintain relationships, and enjoy everyday activities. Therapy for OCD focuses on helping individuals understand and manage their symptoms, reduce anxiety, and regain control over their lives.

An Evidence-Based Approach to Treating OCD

At True Course Counseling, we offer a comprehensive and compassionate approach to OCD counseling. Our obsessive compulsive therapists are highly trained and experienced in treating OCD using evidence-based practices. One of the primary methods we employ is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), specifically Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). ERP helps clients gradually face their fears and reduce the compulsive behaviors that accompany their obsessions.

Our therapists work closely with each client to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses their specific needs and goals. In addition to CBT and ERP, we may incorporate other therapeutic techniques to enhance the effectiveness of our treatment. Our approach emphasizes the importance of a non-judgmental and supportive environment, allowing clients to explore their feelings and experiences openly.

“I feel that Megan allows me the opportunity to really lead what I need to talk about.”

- Anonymous

“I enjoy Megan's open mind and also how she never seems frustrated or unhappy when it takes me several rambling sentences to try to get to a point. She also asks excellent follow up to clarify things and does not appear annoyed when she asks if I am talking about feeling X, and I have to say no, it is more like Y. I feel respected even when talking about very difficult things.”

“Megan has always been clearly committed to taking things at my own pace, which has helped me feel empowered—like I’m leading my own healing journey while knowing I have guidance.”

“To me, Megan takes into consideration what is important in my life, and instead of suggesting removing things that are meaningful but difficult, makes suggestions on lowering my stress around those things. When she does see my growth, which is often harder for me to see, she will point out how I may have reacted to a situation or trigger a year or two ago, and then helps me see for myself the growth in my reaction, my boundaries, etc”

“I really value leaving the appointment with phrases and ideas to recall when I’m dealing with a challenge. I think the most helpful thing I’ve gained working with Laura is better coping skills and communication skills.”
