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 Portage 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 Portage, MI 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 have nothing but incredible things to say about Thriveworks. It's been a simple, positive experience from the start. My provider Brandi is absolutely amazing. She has helped me so much already. It's so important to have a therapist who you feel 100% comfortable with and who you can trust and I am so grateful to have that!

I love working with Starr. She is like a good friend that I can bounce things off of, vent to, and talk through situations I am experiencing. She never judges and always offers support.

She's very intelligent and knows her job well. But she's super patient as I always interrupt her. She's also very intentional with her words and empathetic. She's given me a lot of information with the short time we've had with each other and it's really opened my eyes to things
