Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Therapy

Compassionate, Evidence-Based Care for Lasting Relief

Living with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting and isolating. Intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, and the constant cycle of anxiety can make it difficult to feel in control of your mind and daily life. At Deeply Rooted Psychotherapy, we offer specialized treatment for OCD grounded in evidence-based care, trauma-informed understanding, and deep respect for your individual experience.

Our Approach to Treating OCD

OCD is not just about habits or quirks—it’s a complex anxiety disorder that often develops in response to both biological and environmental factors, including past experiences of stress or trauma. Our therapists integrate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and trauma-informed care to help you find meaningful, sustainable change.

Trauma-Informed Care

We recognize that intrusive thoughts and compulsive patterns often exist alongside a history of emotional or psychological trauma. A trauma-informed approach ensures that your treatment is safe, empowering, and paced according to your needs. We work collaboratively with you to understand your story without re-traumatization—honoring your nervous system’s responses and building trust throughout the process.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT helps you identify and reframe the thought patterns that contribute to anxiety and compulsive behaviors. Together, we’ll develop tools to challenge rigid beliefs, reduce avoidance, and create a healthier relationship with your thoughts.

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

ERP is considered the gold standard treatment for OCD. This approach helps you face the fears that trigger obsessive thoughts while learning to resist the urge to engage in compulsions. Over time, ERP rewires how your brain responds to anxiety—reducing distress and helping you reclaim control over your life.
