NOCD Therapists
A NEW STANDARD IN OCD TREATMENT

Our process sets a new standard for training therapists to treat OCD

NOCD's 4-step training approach equips therapists with the skills to offer people with OCD evidence-based treatments like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy.

Selective hiring
Our interview process assesses whether therapists are qualified to treat each of our members with specialized, personalized, and empathetic OCD care.
Comprehensive training
Upon joining the NOCD Network, therapists begin an intensive, expert-designed program that trains them in ERP therapy, the most effective OCD treatment, and the identification and treatment of related conditions.
Thorough evaluation
Before starting to see NOCD Members, each NOCD Therapist must demonstrate retention of their training and pass multiple exams.
Continuous learning
While working with members, NOCD Therapists receive continuous education and consultation from clinical leadership to ensure the highest quality of care.

With NOCD, you'll work with a therapist who is trained to understand exactly what you're going through and to help you conquer your OCD.
