Jason Gibbs

Licensed Therapist, Ph.D.

I've had several subtypes of OCD since I was very young. I've done ERP myself, so I know how effective it is. I also know it takes a lot of courage just to get here. As a therapist, I create a welcoming, warm environment. I'll ask what you want to get out of therapy and craft a treatment plan based on that, realizing other concerns can arise on a week-to-week basis. Beyond OCD, I have extensive experience treating anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and other conditions closely related to OCD.

Ryan Ventillo

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

As a therapist, I am authentic, compassionate, and caring. Empathy and open communication are important, and I take the time to listen and understand. I like to set specific goals and use measurable instruments so we can understand where we started and where we're going. Some fun facts about me: I've traveled to more than half of the United States. I'm a big outdoorsy type of person and love going on hikes and to national parks.

Jordan Driskell

Licensed Therapist, MS

I'm diagnosed with OCD myself. I've received treatment, and it's had lasting results. OCD is often misunderstood and stigmatized, leading to delays in diagnosis and treatment. I'm passionate about making a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals with OCD. Effective treatment can dramatically improve your quality of life. In therapy, I aim to create a safe space where you'll feel understood, validated, and empowered to manage your symptoms and live a fulfilling life. I also specialize in LGBTQ+ issues, substance use disorders, and co-occurring mood disorders.

Carrie Wells

Licensed Therapist, MS

As someone who's been in therapy myself, I've made it my mission to become the kind of therapist I wished I had as a teenager. Building relationships with my members and collaborating with them to create and meet goals is so rewarding. At the core, I approach our work in therapy as a partner and collaborator. I don't profess to know you better than you know yourself. We are always a team. Although the process of OCD therapy can be uncomfortable and challenging, the payoff is gargantuan.

Jeffrey Lees

Licensed Therapist, MS

As your OCD therapist, I will meet you where you are. I'll push you through your comfort zone to create a new stable environment around your self-talk and behaviors. I'll help you leave unhealthy or dysfunctional strategies behind and move into a new and healthy lifestyle. Outside of work, I love sports, specifically soccer, where I have coached for more than 10 years. I enjoy games, puzzles, listening to music, and spending time with my family on trips. I'm the youngest of six in a blended family and have a blended family of my own. I also enjoy cooking and grilling year-round.

Jerimee Smith

Licensed Therapist, MA

Many of my family members and friends have OCD. I respect and admire you for taking the first step toward positive change. I'm here to help you each step of the way. I take this duty seriously. As a therapist, I'm supportive yet direct. I'll treat you as the primary decision-maker. You're in charge of your life and what direction you want to take. Change can be difficult. That's when I like to help people push harder to overcome avoidance, fear, and anxiety that can keep them stuck. I also specialize in depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, interpersonal conflict, and addiction.
