What Members are saying about NOCD

My session was excellent. It feels good to feel heard and understood, but to also be pushed and challenged by my therapist when the times is right. It really helps me to engage more and be open minded.

Just wanted to take a few minutes to share how incredible Madilynne has been with our 11 year old daughter this past week. Our daughter has been going through some pretty tough times and Madilynne has been amazingly genuine, thoughtful, and creative in how she relates and empathizes with her....quickly gaining her trust and confidence. We are already seeing improvements in how she is coping and approaching the road ahead and we wanted to make sure Madilynne gets the kudos she deserves.

As always, she’s amazing. She keeps me on track and focused on our goals. She always gives me positive reinforcement.

I had to switch therapists, and I’m so thankful to be matched with Pepper now. She’s incredibly kind, is not afraid to talk about tough subjects, and encourages me to keep going with ERP. Amazing person and amazing therapist!! 💜

I was referred to NOCD. I was told it was going to be $95 per week for each session. Not that each session costed ~ $240.00. I was made aware that my insurance wasn't covered. But the woman who called me to get my information for NOCD, just told me that $95 per week is going to be taken from the bank account provided. Now I am being told that I owe roughly $500, if not more. I do not like being deceived as I am an honest person. Whoever called me totally took advantage by telling me that $95 per week was the total amount. The better business bureau will be hearing about this. My grandmother has plenty of experience with the BBB and has had amazing luck with them. The payment provided is not to be used by NOCD or things will be escalated to law enforcement. I will not have money stolen from me. CROOKED business! DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE! FIND SOMEWHERE ELSE TO GO! THIS COMPANY WILL ROB YOU BLIND!

Jared has been extremely helpful and understanding throughout this entire process. I can’t thank him enough for going above and beyond to help me through this difficult time. I highly recommend Jared and NOCD to anyone struggling with OCD

My last session was tough, but that’s the point. That’s how the therapy will continue to help.

Emily is so sweet, she takes her time with me and listens to what I have to say about my problems. She shows me videos and asks me about my Suds levels. She also starts off with how was my weekend and how am my doing. I really feel like she really cares about me and my problems.

Kelly has been an amazing therapist. She is extremely positive, non-judgmental, supportive and great at motivating me to work through ERP and reduce my OCD symptoms. I have many different OCD themes that switch very frequently and she has really helped to adjust my treatment to address each of these themes no matter what they are or how often they change. My OCD symptoms have really reduced and she has helped me so much. I strongly recommend working with Kelly!

Allen Kester has elevated my life is ways I didn’t even think was fathomable six months ago. I came to Allen emotionally exhausted, and fed up and pissed off at the medical establishment, like a dog in the pound that wants to bite if you even try to pet me. Then slowly, you see the same dog months later after experiencing earnest care and affirming patience, the animal is new again, wanting to go on walks and to play catch. Allen brought me back to life. If our calendar is based off BC, my life is BA. There is Before Allen and After Allen. Before Allen, I had two different therapists with NOCD that left me frustrated and not feeling any significant improvement. Before them I had a different therapist that lasted three times before she told me “I don’t have the skills to help you. Your insomnia is so bad they will study you in textbooks someday. I don’t know how you’re still alive, let alone functioning.” The various medical doctors were zero help either. They only know one thing: take a pill and if the pills don’t work, they said they didn’t have anything else to offer and told me to find a therapist. Doing so was an arduous journey. The problem was how long and difficult the process was to find one, and then when you finally get into one, it felt so sterile and non-personalized, like I was just some number on their chart. You can’t treat people like a product on a factory line giving them all the same process and expect them to be treated. I was about to give up, then I reached out to NOCD own final time and saw Allen’s profile. Reluctantly but desperately, I approached Allen like he was Obi One Kenobi, my only hope. Slowly, Allen nursed me back to health. In time, I felt like Aladdin and Allen was my Genie, granting me superpowers to overcome the darkness that OCD has cast on my life for years. During the week I’d think: what would Allen tell me to do in this moment? And our sessions were something I looked forward to, when all others with past providers I dreaded attending. As a teacher myself, I know how the connection or lack there of between student and professor not only changes the course itself, but can alter the course of the students’ life. For years, I’d start crying out of no where because OCD made me feel perpetually petrified. The agony and terror left me broken and drained. Last month, I cried tears of joy and relief because I realized for the first time in years, I went three weeks and wasn’t afraid anymore. Allen had set me free! I was Kevin in the movie Home Alone towards the end when the heater in the basement and the next-door neighbor no longer feel like monsters. I had been carrying that weight for so long I had forgotten what it felt like to walk without chains. Working with Allen made me feel like Scrooge at the end of A Christmas Carol: jubilant and free, like I was walking on air. This is life After Allen. I’m Nike, I float now thanks to the personalized care, earnest empathy, affirmations, insights, directions, coaching, and kindness Allen gave to me. My prayer is that every person finds their Allen. We all deserve to be freed from the fear of OCD and have that Genie whispering into your ear when OCD decides to return for an occasional visit, that OCD no longer has power here. Give this man a raise and a promotion and have him train others in what leading with love looks like. People aren’t parts on an assembly line, we are clay that with the right amount of water and gentle, skilled hands, can be reshaped and brought back to life. May every person suffering know the rejuvenation of life After Allen.

Jordann makes me feel supported and understood. She is a caring listener, a calm presence, and she shares practical resources to challenge my OCD. I enjoy our sessions so much!

Rachel is amazing. She somehow always knows the right things to say without “reassuring”. She takes a collaborative approach that really helps you feel in control. She meets you where you’re at and never pushes you to do something you’re not ready for. Our sessions flow naturally and I think this is because she really shows up and puts her all into sessions, though it seems to come natural. She is a great support.

Every session I've had with Brittany has been amazing. I've gone through a couple of therapist who really didn't fit my vibe. Now under Brittany's care I finally feel like I'm being heard. She's very caring and makes you feel safe when sharing your journey with OCD.

Working with Wendy has been such a meaningful and positive experience for me. She created a space where I felt heard, supported, and understood throughout my journey. Her guidance was thoughtful, compassionate, and consistent, and she always approached our conversations with patience and care. Wendy has a way of helping you feel both grounded and encouraged at the same time. She supported me through important personal growth and gave me tools that I will continue to carry with me moving forward. I’m truly grateful for the time we worked together and the impact she has had on my life. I highly recommend Wendy to anyone looking for a therapist who is attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in the people she supports.

I have not been very successful in finding adequate support for my comorbities and adverse childhood experiences. I find that to my surprise, Monique is very dialed in, and I don't need to work as hard to be understood.

Working with Monique has been so rewarding. I went from not being able to have a “normal day” at work for weeks, to being able to conquer a week long vacation away from home. Monique is very knowledgeable, kind, compassionate, and is a joy to work with. Trying to navigate life with OCD is hard sometimes, but with her help, life seems a little easier lately.

I love my therapist, Rofida. I feel like she really listens to me and validates what I'm going through. And I feel like we have a plan moving forward that will help me.

Cher is an amazing therapist! She makes me feel heard and has excellent advice. She is very knowledgeable about her specialties and knows exactly how to help me! I’ve made amazing progress with her help and I’m so excited to continue my sessions with her!

Jason has helped me gain my agency back from my OCD. I had some very intense themes that interfered in my daily life and ability to do my job. He was able to relate to my military experience and teach me the exposure and response prevention techniques to start living a fulfilling life again. My “recovery” took less than 90 days with his help. There is hope for you and the best day to start was yesterday.

I'm not sure if it was the therapist or the NOCD program, but I was auto-scheduled numerous appointments without my consent or approval. Wildly unethical. Perhaps just a way to get fees? Would NOT recommend at all. Incredibly disappointed.
