OCD & Anxiety SPECIALIST

 

IHW is excited to offer this speciality service specific to the treatment of OCD and anxiety spectrum disorders, using an evidenced-based approach called Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).  ERP involves gradual exposure to situations designed to provoke anxiety, while simultaneously working to prevent anxiety-reducing responses (such as compulsions). The primary goal of ERP is to teach individuals that they can tolerate their distress and uncertainty without engaging in anxiety reducing responses. Our services are targeted towards, but not limited to, the following:

​

Checking Behaviors

Rumination/Obsessive Thoughts

Picking Behaviors

Perfectionism 

Repetitive Behaviors

Social Anxiety

Phobias

 

For scheduling and inquiries contact us, and the practice owner will provide a free phone consultation to ensure our services are a good clinical fit for your needs. Please note that following the free phone consultation, all prospective clients will be required to participate in a free 20 min intake assessment with our OCD Specialist to ensure clinical appropriateness for ERP.
