What is OCD?

OCD is characterized by obsessive thoughts—unwanted, persistent thoughts, images, or urges that cause distress—and compulsive behaviors—repetitive actions performed to relieve anxiety or prevent a feared outcome. Many individuals with OCD struggle to push these thoughts away, feeling trapped in a cycle that interferes with daily life.

Common Signs of OCD

According to the Mayo Clinic, OCD symptoms may include:

✔ Intrusive thoughts that won’t go away

✔ Compulsive behaviors like constant counting or checking

✔ Excessive cleaning or fear of contamination

✔ Checking locks or appliances repeatedly

✔ Hoarding behaviors and difficulty discarding items

✔ Fear of harming yourself or others

✔ Persistent anxiety over specific thoughts or rituals

If these symptoms sound familiar, you are not alone. Therapy can help you regain control and find relief.

How We Treat OCD: A Holistic & Personalized Approach

While Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a well-researched treatment for OCD, we believe in a holistic approach that goes beyond traditional talk therapy. Our Orlando-based OCD therapists incorporate:

✅ EMDR Therapy to process and reduce the distress of intrusive thoughts and past traumas.

✅ Expressive Arts Therapy to explore emotions creatively when words feel limiting.

✅ Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you challenge and reshape obsessive thought patterns.

✅ Mindfulness & Stress Reduction Techniques to decrease anxiety and increase selfawareness.

EMDR Therapy for OCD: Healing at the Root

For many individuals, OCD is linked to underlying trauma or deep-seated fears. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy can be highly effective in reducing the emotional charge of obsessive thoughts, allowing you to regain control over your mind and body.

If past experiences or unprocessed emotions contribute to your OCD symptoms, EMDR can help you heal at the root level.
