Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Anderson, IN
I have experience treating anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, ARFID, OCD, and the anxiety and depression that often accompany these struggles.
As I once desperately needed a trustworthy therapist to navigate the most difficult seasons of my life, my dream career has been fulfilled by being that person for others. My experience began by treating eating disorders in inpatient, residential and partial hospitalization, where I observed the devastation eating disorders cause - and that it's about so much more than food and weight. Now in outpatient, I especially love treating disordered eating and body image struggles! Since my Christian faith was a central piece of my own recovery, I incorporate it into my work with clients whenever they prefer it.

Some issues include depression, anxiety, ADHD, behavior concerns, dual diagnosis, OCD, and PTSD.
As we go through life we face challenges, from these challenges we may experience pain and suffering. As this pain becomes stored within us it creates burdens that may sometimes be too heavy to bear. As a result many may turn to temporary solutions. As I work with clients to explore and resolve pain and trauma more permanent solutions are often discovered and the burden of pain is reduced.

I utilize my clinical experience and education in mental health counseling as well as my training in ACT and ERP to create customized plans for teens and adults who struggle with symptoms of anxiety and/or OCD.
When fear gets the final word in our story, we end up missing out on the life we desire to live. We all want to care for the people we love, experience success, and feel peace, but even our deepest values seem impossible to live out when we feel like we can't enjoy the present moment. Therapy offers us the support we need to focus on what matters to us, even when our minds never seem to "shut off." Through Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), I journey with clients as they identify their values and practice the essential skills needed to face their fears and experience relief.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists
How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine (under the brand name Luvox), fluoxetine (Prozac), and sertraline (Zoloft), among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
