I found the ramp up to the therapy to be excellent. Clear and consistent. When I reflect on it now it makes sense that the founder has OCD himself. The whole process was extremely organized including the point person who I spoke with that could answer any questions. However the description of my therapist, was quite misleading. They said she had decades of experience with OCD and when I met with her I discovered that this was not actually true. She had only worked with a recent client which brought her to this website. I found her to be lovely and kind but not very professional, or seasoned. She described the treatment as “all in” and came across as very formulic and inexperienced. I have since sought help with someone who is an actual seasoned OCD therapist and the contrast is considerable. I feel like an NOCD is very gimmicky and I wonder about the actual credentials of the therapist themselves. I would advise anyone who uses this to look at the credentials and years of experience before investing time or money. OCD requires someone who has training and education, not some formulaic way of using a guidebook without understanding the person in front of them. I would not suggest NOCD for this reason. The expert I waited to see was actually no expert at all, it felt like a sales program and not one based on incorporating the needs of the patient by incorporating other theories. The theory of NOCD is gold standard, but it’s also important to incorporate a clients needs- like ACT- all clients are unique, the execution and consideration of the type of OCD, the duration, and what might be incorporated for therapeutic success is equally important.

Thank You So Much. That was very helpful.
