We offer proven cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) by experts for anxiety-related problems including obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic, social anxiety, chronic worry, and impulse-control issues (hair pulling, skin picking). Our directors have been trained by recognized national experts in the field. The Reeds Center offers intensive or weekly sessions depending on the needs of a particular individual. Research has shown that symptom reduction is most rapid when sessions occur from two to five times per week for up to two hours per session. We generally suggest starting with a higher frequency and intensity of sessions in order to build and maintain momentum and to see change more rapidly. While the financial and time costs of engaging in intensive treatment can be challenging, many individuals choose this option. Some need this level of support in order to make gains with a severe illness. Others travel from out of town and/or utilize breaks from school or work to lay a solid foundation for recovery within a short time period.

The Clinic reflects Karen Horney's optimistic and humanistic philosophy that individuals have the capacity to grow and change throughout life. Along with society and culture, intimate relationships with others are the most important influences on our personal development. Difficulties in life often arise when early relationships provoke anxiety or adversity, which in turn interferes with our growth. Dr. Horney was convinced that treatment geared at understanding the self, and the subsequent outgrowth of such difficulties, would restore a person to a path of personal self-realization. This basic philosophy is the guiding principle of all Clinic services. It is the foundation from which patients gain an understanding of themselves, develop the capacity to grow and change, and enrich their lives.
