Starting Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy (OCDT)

What is OCD counseling?

OCD counseling is a specialized therapeutic approach aimed at supporting individuals coping with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The goal of this counseling is to help clients manage and alleviate the distressing symptoms of OCD by systematically addressing their obsessive thought patterns and compulsive behaviors.

How does OCD counseling work?

In OCD counseling, Thriveworks Alexandria therapists use cognitive behavioral techniques, including exposure and response prevention, to assist you in addressing and managing your obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. An OCD therapist will collaborate with you to identify and modify irrational thought patterns while gradually and gently exposing you to anxiety-triggering situations, helping to disrupt the cycle of obsessive-compulsive rituals and promote healthier coping strategies.

Is OCD counseling conducted in person or online?

Thriveworks OCD counseling in Alexandria, VA is conducted both in person and online by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does OCD counseling last?

The number of sessions for OCD counseling is variable, contingent upon the individual’s unique needs, the severity of their condition, and their progress during treatment. Typically, Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), commonly used for OCD, comprises around 12 to 16 weekly sessions, but the exact session count can be customized based on the individual’s response to treatment and therapeutic objectives. Some opt for a more extended duration to comprehensively manage symptoms and address complex issues.

Mary Fields has been an enormous part of my ability to successfully handle a serious medical condition as well as a divorce after 44 years of marriage. She's a terrific counselor and I would recommend her to anyone.

My therapist, Beatrice is so wonderful. It's almost like talking to a good friend, I respect her she's a fantastic listener to the point where she remember everybody's name in the conversation and I just can't believe I found such a highly professional therapist. I recommend everyone if they're looking for therapist to look into having Beatrice your therapist.

Dee is amazing - she's been really helpful. What could be a LOT better is booking future appointments in the portal. It's NOT intuitive or easy.
