Therapy for OCD
In Atlanta and throughout Georgia
OCD can lead to anxiety, isolation, depression, and relationship issues
Do you feel like doubt & anxiety have taken over your life?
You’re stuck in your head—questioning, doubting, replaying.
The thoughts feel intrusive and relentless, like they hijack your mind without warning. You try to make them stop by doing certain things—checking, counting, repeating, cleaning, avoiding—but the relief never lasts. You know the logic doesn’t add up, but the anxiety is so real, so loud, that you feel like you have no choice but to listen to it.
You worry constantly, the “what ifs” running through your mind on a never-ending loop.
You need to be in control, but no matter what you do, you only feel more out of control. You’ve started to avoid places, people, and situations just to keep the anxiety at bay. Your world feels smaller and harder to navigate.
Whatever your OCD looks like, you’re starting to notice its impact in every part of your life:
Holding yourself back from opportunities because you can’t stop second-guessing yourself
Risking your relationships because you’ve been avoiding situations or can’t seem present when you do show up
Feeling exhausted all the time from constantly battling your thoughts
You’re doing your best, but it’s starting to feel like OCD is calling the shots.
OCD therapy can help you take your life back.
OCD might feel all-consuming right now, but it doesn’t have to stay that way. With the right support, it’s possible to quiet the noise and reconnect with yourself.
OCD Therapy helps you to…
Understand the role OCD plays in your life, and how it latches onto your deepest fears and values
Recognize the patterns of doubt and compulsive behavior that are keeping you stuck, even when they feel like they’re helping
Develop practical tools to manage anxiety and tolerate uncertainty, so you don’t have to keep relying on compulsions
Build your ability to stay present, even when your mind wants to pull you into a spiral
Reconnect with your true self—the version of you that exists beneath the fear, the rituals, and the noise
OCD therapy is not about getting rid of thoughts (spoiler: we all have weird ones). It’s about changing your relationship with them so they don’t run the show.
With time and practice, you can start to feel more grounded, more confident, and more free.
You don’t have to keep living this way.
OCD convinces you that you need to be absolutely sure, completely safe, and always in control. But healing starts when you begin to approach your thoughts differently—not by proving them wrong, but by learning to trust yourself more than your doubt.
In our work together, we’ll gently explore why your thoughts feel so real and urgent, and begin to shift the way you respond to them. Using evidence-based approaches like Inference-Based CBT and ACT, we’ll focus on:
Understanding the reasoning traps that fuel your OCD
Gaining distance from obsessive thoughts so they no longer feel like facts
Practicing acceptance of uncertainty without letting it run your life
Reconnecting with what actually matters to you—not just what OCD tells you to fear
You’ll learn how to make room for discomfort without letting it control your choices so you can start living a life guided by your values, not your fears.
You don’t have to do this alone.
Let’s work together to help you reclaim your life from OCD.
FAQs: OCD
-
No, many people struggle with obsessive thoughts and compulsions without having a formal OCD diagnosis. If you’re suffering, that’s reason enough to reach out!
-
Know that you’re not alone! One of OCD’s most painful tricks is convincing you that your thoughts say something bad about who you are.
Therapy provides a safe, nonjudgmental space to explore those thoughts and loosen their grip.
-
If obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors are interfering with your daily life, relationships, or self-esteem, therapy can help. Whether you’ve been formally diagnosed or just suspect OCD may be playing a role, reach out today to get support.
-
While traditional CBT for OCD often focuses on exposure and response prevention (ERP), Inference-Based CBT focuses on how the obsession started in the first place—helping you recognize the thinking errors that led to the obsession. It can be especially helpful for people who feel stuck in rumination or have a harder time with ERP.
-
Yes—OCD and eating disorders often go hand in hand. Both can involve rigid rules, compulsive behaviors, and an intense need for control.
If you're struggling with both OCD and an eating disorder, you're not alone—and you're not "too complicated." These two issues often overlap in ways that can feel confusing and overwhelming. You might find yourself stuck in strict food rules, compulsive exercise, or health-focused rituals that feel impossible to break, even when you know they’re hurting you.
As a therapist with specialized training in both OCD and eating disorders, I understand how these conditions can fuel each other—and how healing often requires addressing both. Whether OCD shows up in your thoughts about food and your body, or in entirely different ways, we’ll work together to untangle the patterns, reduce shame, and help you build a life that feels more flexible and aligned with who you are.
