About

I treat people with OCD the same as I would treat someone without OCD. I treat you as an individual, with individual experiences, and individual needs. I view you as an expert on your OCD. Outside of work, I am a father to two daughters. I love binge-watching TV shows with my wife. When the weather is nice, you can always find my family at the park hiking or playing at the playground.

As someone who has personally struggled with repetitive behaviors, I know that your thoughts don’t define you—together, we can reach success. I love getting to the end of treatment, and celebrating the great strides the people I work with have made in overcoming OCD.

My daughter met with Aaron Hensley via Zoom meetings for about 10 to 15 sessions. She was given the tools she very much needed to battle her OCD obsessions and fears. She feels more in control and has been educated enough to recognize irrational fears and dominating thinking as her OCD. She knows how to overcome them now.... we are thankful for NoCD.

I’m really happy with my progress. My therapist was great, and I felt like he really understood what I was feeling.

We’ve only been working with Aaron for a couple of sessions but our experience so far has been positive. My son struggles to open up in session but outside of the sessions, he is actually motivated to work on his struggles and has really been opening up about everything! It’s been great to see! I hope we can keep this momentum going!

We haven’t had many sessions yet, so I don’t have much to say about it other than we think our therapist, Aaron, is really a good fit for our son. He is really good with him. He’s been able to say the right things to him when we can’t even get him to sit in front of the computer, he comes back and finishes his sessions. Aaron is very patient and understanding.

I'm very grateful to have worked with Aaron. I felt like he really understood my core fears behind my obsessions, and he chose exposures that effectively targeted these fears. ERP can be challenging, especially at the beginning. There were some moments initially where I felt hopeless, and I couldn't imagine ever being at peace with my obsession. But I gradually got better and better over the course of a few months, and I'm in remission now. Highly recommend Aaron and ERP generally

Great at communication and explaining the NOCD process.

My therapist is very thoughtful and was able to help me look at my OCD from a new and more constructive perspective. He is understanding that treating OCD causes some discomfort when stepping out of your comfort zone.

Good session with Aaron! It is nice to be in the recovery phase of my journey and I look forward to continuing my recovery.

My minor child is the patient and as such I will answer for her on these reviews. We have a discussion after her sessions and each time there is always something new she learns. Today’s session was extremely helpful and provided her with an additional step up towards her goals. She still has a way to go but I feel her therapist has the knowledge and skills to help her get past her compulsions and not let them control her life.

Feb 06, 2023

So fantastic. My son had a lightbulb moment during our review of the ocd cycle. We are learning so much and feel seen and heard. Looking forward to continuing to work with Aaron!

Aaron has been great and has helped me manage through a lot of challenging intrusive thoughts.

S.S.

Jan 13, 2023

Managing OCD is really tough, but Aaron has worked with me for the last few months and I am now sub clinical for OCD. Our ERP sessions have been challenging but helpful and we have worked together on coping strategies and emotional regulation

C.D.

Aaron has a way with words that just land with me. Outside of just doing ERP he is extremely skilled in talk therapy dealing with trauma and depression.

We are so thankful for Aaron and the work he has done in our, son Zach. Zach had obsessive thoughts with throwing up and a tight throat for the past 6 years. He managed it with anxiety medicine, but it never went way. In May after his last episode he started working with Aaron and was exposed to ERP therapy. Zach has learned how to face his fears and overcome them. He even has started to taper off his anxiety medicine and is taking half his dosage! Working with Aaron has changed his life because Zach has skills that he can apply and not be controlled by his thoughts. Thank you Aaron for helping Zach and our family. You have made a huge positive impact in our lives!

Nov 15, 2022

I have noticed so much progress in just a couple of months. I was weary at first and worried therapy wouldn't work, but Aaron has been the most helpful person through it and it has been 100% worth the try.

E.B.

My therapist is a great listener. He has a great willingness to help and is caring and professional. I am thankful I am receiving treatment and direction navigating OCD and the depression that co-exists alongside OCD.

Aaron did an excellent job of listening and hearing what I was saying. He was spot on recapping my current situation.

C.D.

Oct 28, 2022

Aaron really makes me feel seen and not crazy. Like I’m not alone. He makes me feel like a good person without giving in time my compulsion of reassurance or checking. I highly recommend him and I’m excited(albeit nervous) to start ERP but I feel like his approach is gentle.

J.W.

Oct 27, 2022

There were multiple points wherein I wondered whether or not my therapist was actually listening to me- sometimes, it was silent for a long time after I finished speaking, and then I was only affirmed with an “ok” from him. I also noticed that there were points in which he wasn’t making eye contact with me and was actually looking at a different screen while I was talking.

H.P.

Aaron is always there for me however I may need. I’m very appreciative
