OCD Therapists in Louisville
Louisville OCD Clinic is a specialty practice devoted to obsessive-compulsive disorder and related conditions. Our clinicians are trained in Exposure and Response Prevention, the first-line treatment for OCD, and treat children, adolescents, and adults.
Why does specialty training matter for OCD?
OCD responds to a specific treatment that many generalist therapists are not trained to deliver. Supportive therapy that explores the content of intrusive thoughts can reinforce the disorder by functioning as reassurance, which is itself a compulsion.
Kentucky has relatively few clinicians with formal ERP training, and people frequently spend years in general therapy before reaching someone who treats OCD directly.
What should I ask a prospective OCD therapist?
- Are you trained in Exposure and Response Prevention specifically?
- Roughly what portion of your caseload is OCD?
- Will we build an exposure hierarchy, and will I practice between sessions?
- How will we measure whether treatment is working?
- What happens if my symptoms shift to a different theme?
A specialist will answer these readily.
