OCD

OCD is highly treatable.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts or images (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals (compulsions) done to reduce anxiety or prevent something bad from happening. OCD can look like contamination/washing, checking, symmetry/ordering, reassurance seeking, relationship/ROCD, harm or taboo intrusive thoughts, and scrupulosity. It often co-occurs with anxiety, depression, tics/Tourette’s, trauma-related symptoms, or autism/ADHD; we treat the whole presentation, not just the rituals.

Experience the difference of expert clinicians and the latest techniques to treat obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). Our medical staff approaches your care by addressing the underlying problem because OCD can sometimes disguise serious mental illnesses and psychiatric issues. We’ll get to the root of your condition, considering whether depression, anxiety, or more is a contributing factor when determining your integrated treatment program. That personalized program can include cutting-edge techniques approved for treating OCD, such as transcranial magnetic stimulation, medications, therapies, and more.

Not sure if you need help?

If you realize that:
 
  • You spend a lot of time on rituals (cleaning, checking, counting, repeating, confessing, mental reviewing)

  • Intrusive thoughts/images feel distressing, “not me,” or hard to dismiss

  • Avoidance is growing (people/places/objects)

  • OCD is affecting school/work, relationships, or self-care

  • Past therapy helped only a little because ERP wasn’t included

 
Take this survey to see if you or a loved one may be suffering from OCD or Anxiety.
 
*However, this should not be used to replace the recommendations and/or diagnoses provided by a medical or mental health professional. We encourage you to share your results with a mental healthcare professional who can help you determine the next steps that are right for you.
 

What are co-occurring disorders?

Co-occurring disorders (also called dual diagnosis) means a substance use disorder happens at the same time as one or more mental health conditions. Common combinations include depression, anxiety, PTSD/trauma, bipolar spectrum, ADHD, OCD, and personality-related difficulties. Treating only substance use – or only mental health – often leads to short-lived results. Durable recovery requires addressing both together.

Why integrated treatment works

  • Substance use can mask or worsen mood, anxiety, and trauma symptoms.
  • Mental health symptoms can trigger cravings and relapse risk.
  • Coordinated care reduces handoffs, conflicting plans, and gaps that derail progress.
  • Patients get one team, one plan, and consistent skills across settings.

How we integrate care at Mind Therapy Clinic

1) Comprehensive assessment
Psychiatry-led evaluation of substance use patterns, withdrawal risk, and mental health history; medical review and labs as needed.

2) One plan, one team
Your psychiatrist, individual therapist, family therapist, group facilitators, and case manager meet weekly to align goals and adjust care.

3) Evidence-based therapies
CBT, DBT, ACT, trauma-informed care, motivational interviewing/MI, relapse-prevention, and skills groups that apply to both conditions.

4) Medications when appropriate
Medication management for mood/anxiety/ADHD and MAT (e.g., buprenorphine, naltrexone, acamprosate) when clinically indicated.

5) Integrated family support
Education, boundaries, and coaching so home supports recovery rather than stress.

6) Step-up/step-down continuity
Seamless movement across Outpatient ↔ IOP ↔ PHP, with the same core team; option to pair IOP/PHP with 24/7 supportive living.

7) Measurement-based care
Regular symptom and functioning measures for both substance use and mental health—shared with you to track progress together.

The integrated treatment we provide our clients suffering from OCD combines evidence-based techniques, therapies, medication, and more. Your program is personalized to your specific issues and possible accompanying conditions. This is the Mind Therapy Clinic difference.
 
We get to the root so that you can better manage this chronic disorder. Please don’t leave it untreated. Get help today and live a full and rewarding life. Proper diagnosis includes a psychiatric evaluation, assessment, and more.
 

Coping with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Tips that have helped many former and current clients at our clinic.

OCD Treatment

All of our OCD treatments are evidence-based and backed by scientific research. An individualized, integrated plan created by your personal case manager may include:
medications

Medication

The goal of medication is to effectively control symptoms of OCD using the right combination of medication. Our psychiatrists are industry-leading pharmacologists who have effectively treated thousands of patients using commonly used as well as combinations of medications. They have deep understanding of interactions, side effects, and risks of each combination.

psychotherapy

Psychotherapy

Psychotherapy using CBT focused approaches hinges on two key methods scientifically proven to transform a person’s behavior and thoughts. The first is called exposure and response prevention (ERP), and the second is cognitive therapy. Our therapists are specially trained in cognitive-behavioral therapy, providing expert care for those dealing with OCD.

tms

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

This is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. The magnetic stimulation is generated using a FDA-approved device that treats OCD. An electromagnetic coil is placed against the scalp near the forehead to deliver magnetic pulse to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. When traditional treatments have not been effective, this is a good option.

dbt

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

DBT is a therapeutic approach rooted in cognitive behavior therapy principles. It emphasizes mindfulness, acceptance, validation, and trust-building. It stands apart from other therapies by emphasizing the concept of acceptance, where thoughts are neither deemed good nor bad.

Based on your specific needs and diagnosis, we offer comprehensive and effective programs to help you find relief now and into the future. They include a continuum of care from outpatient to intensive patient, partial hospitalization programming to supportive housing.
