Overcoming OCD Together

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can significantly impact your quality of life, causing distressing thoughts and repetitive behaviors. At Premier Psychiatric Services, we offer comprehensive care to help you manage OCD and regain control of your life.

Understanding OCD

‍OCD is characterized by:

• Obsessions: Intrusive, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges
• Compulsions: Repetitive behaviors or mental acts performed to alleviate anxiety

Common OCD Themes

‍While OCD can manifest in various ways, some common themes include:

• Contamination and cleaning
• Symmetry and ordering
• Forbidden or taboo thoughts
• Harm-related thoughts

Our Treatment Approach

‍We offer a multi-faceted treatment plan tailored to your specific needs:

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

‍This evidence-based therapy helps you confront your fears and resist compulsive behaviors, gradually reducing OCD symptoms.

Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

‍CBT helps you identify and change thought patterns that contribute to OCD symptoms.

Medication Management

‍When appropriate, we prescribe and monitor medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), to help manage OCD symptoms.

Mindfulness Techniques

‍We teach mindfulness practices to help you manage anxiety and intrusive thoughts.

Ongoing Support
