OCD Therapy
Expert, Compassionate, Virtual OCD Treatment
Because Reality Isn't as Scary as Your Brain Wants You to Think It Is
We're not going to promise to "fix" your OCD. That's not how this works, and honestly, we don't think you need fixing. What we do offer is evidence-based treatment that helps you reconnect with the parts of yourself that have been held hostage by obsessions and compulsions. We use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Committment Therapy (ACT) but we do it in a way that feels human, not like you're just checking boxes on a clinical protocol.
Don't let intrusive thoughts dictate your life any longer. Let's get started today.
Our Approach to OCD Therapy
Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP)
We believe healing isn't something we do to you; it's something we cultivate with you. How does that look when it comes to your OCD treatment?
It looks something like this:
-
ERP that doesn't feel robotic – Yes, we follow evidence-based practices, but we also remember you're a whole, complex human, not a diagnosis
-
Space for the full experience – The fear, the frustration, the dark humor that sometimes shows up when your brain is being ridiculous
-
No pathologizing your humanness – OCD is real and hard, but we're not interested in reducing you to your symptoms
-
Presence over scripts – We show up as real humans, not therapists hiding behind professional facades
Understand Your Unique Pattern
No two brains spiral the same way. We'll explore how OCD shows up specifically for you, without forcing your experience into a one-size-fits-all box.
What to Expect
OCD thrives in isolation and secrecy. Our work together creates a space where you can bring all of it—the intrusive thoughts you're terrified to say out loud, the rituals that make you feel ridiculous, the exhaustion of fighting your own brain every single day.
Challenge Without Retraumatizing
We'll build exposures that meet you where you are and push back against the obsessions in a way that feels doable, not destructive.
Reclaim Your Freedom
Through response prevention practice in your real-world settings, we'll help you reconnect with the freedom of being fully alive, even when your brain is loud.

Investing in YOUR care.
We operate as a private-pay practice, which means we choose to not bill insurance directly. Private pay aligns with our values and ​​​means we answer to you, not them. It means we can offer the personalized care you deserve. Longer sessions if needed, treatment plans that evolve with you, not with arbitrary session limits. No diagnoses weaponized in permanent records. No justifying your humanity to meet "medical necessity" criteria. Just real therapy, built around your actual needs.
​
​We also provide superbills you can submit for out-of-network reimbursement, and help you navigate that process.​​​
Reduced-Fee Options
We also hold a limited number of reduced-fee slots because we believe healing shouldn't only be accessible to people with disposable income. If cost is a barrier, let's talk. We'd rather work something out than have you go without the support you deserve.​

Our Clients Say
What it's like to work with coeo's expert OCD therapist, straight from the source.
“I used to feel completely trapped by my own thoughts. Working with Nadia helped me learn how to stop fighting my brain and start living my life again. ERP was uncomfortable at first, but she made it feel doable and safe.”
What is Exposure Response (ERP) Therapy?
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a highly effective, evidence-based approach to treatment, most often used for individuals experiencing Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and various anxiety disorders. It is one of the specialized therapeutic approaches we use here at coeo.
ERP works by helping you gradually face the things you fear, while intentionally choosing to prevent your typical, habitual response. This process is centered on building new learning in your brain and body.
ERP therapy has two main components:
1
Exposure
This involves slowly and intentionally confronting the thoughts, situations, or objects that trigger your anxiety or obsessions. We start small and work up to harder exposures together, at a pace that honors your nervous system.
Response Prevention
This crucial part involves making a choice to resist performing your usual compulsive behaviors or rituals. It’s about learning to stay with the discomfort and anxiety until it naturally decreases. We help you find the courage to pause and allow the anxiety to dissipate on its own, without resorting to your safety behaviors.
2
The goal isn't to eliminate all anxiety; it's to teach your brain that the things you fear aren't actually dangerous and that you can tolerate the uncertainty and discomfort without needing to "fix" it. This builds a deeper sense of self-trust and emotional agency.
