Starting Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy (OCDT) in Columbus

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 Columbus 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 Columbus, OH 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.

I like the availability and ease of making appointments. Debora is always responsive to my emails and always kind. She has become a good friend and confidant in my life. I value her professional skills and insight and wouldn't be where I'm at today without her!

Melissa listens and is affirming and kind. She also asks really good questions to help me process what is going on and get to the root of the issue. Her training in trauma has helped me understand my issues and how to process them, and her knowledge of ADHD, PTSD, and differential diagnoses has been invaluable in explaining my experiences and those of my family members.

I am in two separate counseling sessions.. My individual counselor, Cecelia, is very attentive and reassuring. She always hypes up my wins and helps me reframe negativity. . My couples' counselor, Shantrice, is great at hearing both sides and finding a happy medium concerning our circumstances. We recently decided to separate and she has been very receptive to helping us navigate as future ex-spouses and co-parents.
