What Members are saying about NOCD

Isabel helped save my life and I am not exaggerating. I will always be grateful to her for her help with my OCD diagnosis and ERP therapy. She is so understanding and non-judgmental. Without her I know I would still be living in emotional pain. I’m no longer a prison to my compulsions and ruminations.

Leah continues to be an amazing therapist and an integral part of my OCD treatment. Her approach is empathetic and encouraging. She often shares materials that I can use as tools to aide in my journey! I am truly blessed to have Leah as my NOCD counselor!

Andrea is very genuine, she has a great personality which helps me feel comfortable to do the uncomfortable with my OCD, I am beyond grateful to have her as on of the specialist’s guide me through my mental health journey!

So thankful for Nocd. Doing so much better!!!!

Jasmine is an exceptionally insightful, responsive, deeply compassionate, and overall amazing therapist. She has the creativity and experience to adapt to whatever the patient and the session will bring, and the dedication and focus that keeps sessions productive and meaningful. I have had my share of therapists, and Jasmine is, in my experience, exceptionally passionate about treating her patients in a way that works for them and cares deeply the impact and efficacy of the treatment and exercises she facilitates in her sessions. Jasmine has made an enormously positive impact on my life, my mental health, and the treatment of my obsessive compulsive disorder.

For me, Cathy has been the closest I think you can get to real life superhero. Helping me through pregnancy, navigating being a new mother with OCD & so much more. She has this ability to make therapy comfortable. She’s not afraid to laugh with you while also keeping you accountable. I dare say she’s saved my life by giving it back to me, I found a version of myself I thought was long gone.. Cathy just reminded me that version of myself was always there, just hiding under my OCD. I’m so grateful to her, and recommend her for your therapy journey 💕

I’m so thankful for my therapist. She has helped me so much during these difficult times, and I see progress every day. I’m learning how to accept the OCD, especially my specific themes. Sometimes I have doubts, but Chris has helped me and given me so many tips. I’m so grateful for her help.

Victorria is a thoughtful therapist who takes time to understand what I need before being outcome (or hierarchy) driven. She always has thought-provoking questions when I'm out of words, and shares useful tools with me.

Irmgard has been an amazing therapist! She is very kind and knowledgeable. I have learned a lot of strategies from her that have been helpful.

Cody has saved my life. No exaggerating when I say that. OCD used to rule my mind, and it's still a battle, but having someone like him, who gets it, makes a world of a difference. Feel ready to challenge my most difficult obsessions with him.

Gaby is an excellent therapist. She makes sure she understands what you are saying and she has excellent educational tools to use between sessions.

I have been with NOCD for most of this year and I think the app and ERP are tools that were missing in my previous attempts at improving my mental health. The support groups, psychoeducation, community and tools practiced in therapy have made a significant improvement in my quality of life. Gaby Tessielli has helped me accept my ADHD brain, recognize OCD symptoms and discern different strategies based on what is present at this moment. Experimenting with different tools with a couple of other NOCD therapists has given Gaby and I lots of material to incorporate into reducing rumination, perfectionism and addressing situations instead of avoiding them. I still have many medical and mental health diagnoses, conditions and symptoms. Gaby has reinforced many of the skills I have learned in the OCD support groups, providing a seamless experience. She is responsive in the app, very knowledgeable and doesn't make assumptions.

I have been working with Jessica McGraw for close to a year with multiple sessions per week and she is outstanding. Her compassion is unmatched, she is skillful and practical in the way she gives advice, techniques and guidance, and she is a fantastic listener who is able to recall even minor details from past sessions. Most of all, it's very apparent that she truly cares- she always makes herself available through the app and is always there in moments where it feels like a crisis. Can't speak to her aptitude as a therapist highly enough.

I've seen therapists for years and my OCD has only gotten worse. I've been seeing Bri for a month and I'm already "sub-clinical". How is this possible?? One big thing I learned so far is that when they teach empathy in school, they're teaching it for normal brains who need to be told "put yourself in that persons shoes". If you already have a lot of empathy AND have OCD, this is catastrophic advice. I can do things now that I've feared for years. I'm so happy with my progress.

Marcy is amazing. She is so good at what she does and has provided guidance and support without “feeding” my OCD so to speak like past therapists did. Finding her when I did turned my life around. I was struggling postpartum with near constant fears and compulsions, living in my head with my fears most of the day. It was hard work she had me do but here I am over a year later with a life that looks completely different. My quality of life has gone from abysmal to amazing. I really can’t express enough how thankful I am I found Marcy when I did, she has changed my life ❤️

Dear Nicole, Thank you so much for everything you have done for me. You have helped me so much with my OCD. I don’t have nearly as many intrusive thoughts as I used to, and when I do, I use the tools you have taught me. I’m so grateful for my experience with you. You have been a wonderful teacher and have shown me so much patience along the way. Thank you for all you do and for helping me make so much progress. ❤️ S.Q

Bethany has been a huge help to me throughout my journey with ERP. I was highly skeptical after creating my exposure hierarchy with her. I took a step back and stopped therapy for a couple of weeks and joined some of the support groups offered from Bethany's recommendation. That was the best recommendation she could have given. To hear other people share about their journey with ERP and how much it has helped them was enough to allow myself to get back to attempting the exposures themself. I was diagnosed 5 months ago and am in the maintenance phase of therapy. I know their can be relapses and I know that other's may take longer, but the change I have noticed in myself along with the change my partner and family have noticed is incredible. To let go of control, but feel more in control of my own thoughts and actions is something I wasn't even sure existed anymore. I am incredibly grateful to Bethany and glad that she encouraged me to stick with ERP.

Jasmine has truly been a Godsend! She is compassionate, caring, and professional. She’s never failed to make me feel heard, seen, and worth it. It’s been a journey the last three months and this session was cool because I got to celebrate the progress I’ve made! 100/10 recommend Jasmine!

I go into every session dreading what it might bring out of me. But after every session I am happy that I completed another session. All thanks to Beatrice and the amazing work she does. She always brings out the best of me.

The best decision I ever made. My Therapist has really help me transition from threw som really difficult situations with various techniques. I'm Forever Greatful. THANKS JESSICA WILEY
