Frequently Asked Questions
What are some common symptoms of OCD?
The main features of OCD are obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are intrusive and persistent or repetitive thoughts, mental images, or impulsive urges that are often anxiety-provoking and feel uncontrollable despite your best efforts. Compulsions are strong impulses to do specific things to decrease the anxiety or obsessive thoughts. Compulsions often show up as repetitive and excessive behaviors or thought processes (rituals).
Can people with OCD get better?
Absolutely! Living a life that’s no longer controlled by OCD symptoms is 100% possible. In therapy, we use evidence-based treatments to help clients experience relief from intrusive thoughts and compulsions. You don’t have to feel trapped any more.
