What is OCD?

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition that causes persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions). These symptoms can interfere with daily life, relationships, work, and overall well-being.

OCD Treatments Near You

OCD treatment typically involves a combination of psychotherapy, skills training, and sometimes medication. Some of the most effective therapy approaches include:

CBT for OCD

CBT therapy for OCD focuses on challenging the thought patterns that fuel obsessive fears and compulsive behaviors. With the support of a trained therapist, clients learn healthier ways to respond to intrusive thoughts. CBT is one of the most researched and effective approaches for long-term OCD recovery.

ERP for OCD

ERP treatment is widely recognized as the gold standard for OCD therapy. This process involves gradually exposing clients to the thoughts, images, or situations that trigger their anxiety—without engaging in compulsive behaviors. Over time, this helps retrain the brain, reducing fear and breaking the cycle of obsessions and compulsions.

Our ERP specialists in Richmond will walk you through it step by step.

Our practice employs both therapists and psychiatrists, working together, to ensure you receive the most effective & holistic treatment possible.
