About

OCD is a true deceiver. It makes you believe that you must rely on compulsions to relieve anxiety, even if only temporarily, That’s how OCD survives. I can show you how to beat OCD, but the process to getting you better is indeed a collaborative process. I’ve been told by previous patients that they enjoy my supportive approach. I believe in empowering you during sessions instead of having you depend on me. This will ensure that your confidence develops, so you can manage your OCD outside of treatment with the tools to make positive change in your life. Most importantly, we’ll make these changes happen together.

I realize that starting any journey of change is a big step for each person ... it's not easy, but it's a very worthwhile endeavor, certainly with addressing OCD.

NOCD therapists are trained by our world-renowned clinical leadership team.

George is very knowledgeable about OCD. A good first session as George made me feel at ease, as I was feeling very anxious before the session.

I worked with George for over a year after a hospitalization due to my OCD switching themes to harm. He was incredible, and the work at NOCD truly saved my life. Recovery is a complex journey, but I now have tools and know I am never in the same spot a second time. I am grateful for NOCD and George and the progrram that gave me my life back and my kids their mom back.

NOCD is helping me manage O.C.D. Very glad to have such help available since the area I live in has no O.C.D. specialists. My therapist really seems to care about me.

George is direct, clear, and supportive. He also reflects on himself to ensure the space remains compulsion free! I couldn't be happier with my experience.
