Starting Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapy (OCDT) in San Francisco

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 San Francisco 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 San Francisco, CA 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 to say, text messages for reminders of an appointment have helped me with my ADHD. I think having features built in for certain Neuro Styles are SO helpful and wonderful for helping those process. Maybe even a Thriveworks app with specific support features. Like a check list a therapist can see on the fly. Or make a game out of building habits. Just resources to help certain people. Love it here though, and loving the changes I'm seeing! Evolving with technology is wonderful. It shows a sense of care and support that surpasses scientific standards that are dated.

Jamie is firm, fair, and friendly. She is a great listener, and she makes me feel seen and heard. There is a lot for us to get to, since I am new to therapy, but we cover something important every week. Eventually I know she will guide me through the events in my life that have lead me here. I appreciate the time she takes to prepare me for what is coming in my life.
