Condition
OCD
Care for obsessive-compulsive disorder, both the intrusive thoughts and the rituals that follow, with steady medication management and no judgment.
Signs you might recognize
Does this sound familiar?
- Intrusive thoughts, images, or fears that feel impossible to dismiss
- Rituals, checking, or mental routines that ease the anxiety only briefly
- Hours lost to routines you already know don't quite make sense
- Needing things ordered, even, or 'just right' before you can move on
- Seeking reassurance that never fully settles the doubt
If several of these resonate, it doesn't necessarily mean a diagnosis. It's still worth a conversation.
How I treat ocd
My approach.
OCD is common, well understood, and says nothing about your character. The thoughts are symptoms, not intentions. Medication can meaningfully reduce the intensity of obsessions and the pull of compulsions, and I'll explain the options and trade-offs plainly before we choose one. Because exposure and response prevention (ERP) is a first-line therapy I don't provide myself, I'll coordinate with an ERP-trained therapist, or help you find one, so both halves of your care work together.
