Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a mental health condition where individuals experience persistent, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and perform repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions) to relieve anxiety or prevent imagined harm. These actions can feel necessary, even when they are recognized as excessive or irrational.

OCD symptoms vary in severity and type. Common obsessions include fears of contamination, causing harm, or making mistakes, while compulsions often involve washing, checking, counting, or repeating actions. These behaviors can occupy significant time, disrupt daily routines, and strain relationships. Individuals with OCD often feel trapped by their thoughts and behaviors, yet therapy can help manage symptoms and restore quality of life.

Seek support for OCD if obsessions or compulsions interfere with daily functioning, cause distress, or consume large amounts of time. Without intervention, symptoms can intensify, potentially leading to anxiety, depression, or social isolation. OCD therapy in California offers structured strategies to reduce compulsive behaviors, address underlying causes, and regain control over your life.
