Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy (OCDT) FAQs

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 Philadelphia 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 Philadelphia, PA 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 absolutely love working with Christina. She makes me feel good after every session. She is super thorough in her techniques and clear with communication. I also love that she takes notes throughout our session and is able to pick up on things that I say so we can discuss more about them and why I said it. She gives me confidence in my mental health.

I have seen many mental health providers the last 15 years. No one else I have seen has been as patient, knowledgeable, nor cared as much. I feel as though I have grown more in the last year than I have across my whole life.

I appreciate how patient Christina is. She doesn’t rush me, but she’s also not afraid to give me a gentle push when I try to bottle up. She’s helped me so much and the people around me can see the progress I’ve made!

I appreciate availability the most. Whenever I’m in need of service my therapist is an email or call away. There have been times when I was in immediate need because of serious life circumstances, she always made time for me and for that I’m eternally grateful.
