Obsessive Compulsive Disorder & Phobias
If you or your child are feeling trapped by fear — whether it’s a fear of getting sick, of something bad happening, or of certain situations or objects — you're not alone. OCD and phobias can both take over daily life in ways that are exhausting, confusing, and overwhelming.
But the good news is: these conditions are highly treatable, and with the right tools and support, things can get better.
​
At our practice, we support children, teens, and adults who are living with OCD and phobias — from the day-to-day struggles to the deep, sticky fears that just won’t let go. We specialize in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and other evidence-based therapies to help you or your child face fears gradually and build confidence from the inside out.
What OCD or Phobias Might Look Like
​
Repetitive fears about germs, illness, or harm
Intrusive thoughts or mental images that feel "wrong" or scary
Avoiding places, animals, activities, or situations (like driving, storms, throwing up, or being far from home)
Repetitive rituals or seeking constant reassurance to feel safe
Struggles with school, sleep, friendships, or independence due to overwhelming fears
ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention)
The gold standard for OCD and phobia treatment, helping you gradually face fears without rituals or avoidance.

​
Psychoeducation & Relapse Prevention

What Treatment Can Look Like
Fears shrink — and life expands
Anxiety becomes easier to manage
You or your child can feel more in control, not controlled by fear
Confidence builds in day-to-day life, school, work, and relationships
We know how deeply OCD and phobias can affect the whole family. But we also know that change is possible — and that no one should have to fight anxiety alone. Whether you're looking for support for yourself or for your child, we’re here to help guide the way forward with care, clarity, and compassion.
