OCD Specialists in
Columbus, Ohio

Stephen Mohr

Licensed Therapist, LPCC-S

During my time as a clinical counselor, I often treated people that described OCD symptoms. Now, I specialize in treating OCD. I’m driven to help people in significant pain, so to treat those with OCD, I’ve become more proficient and confident in the treatment that I provide. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy allows me to do that because it gets the results I’m looking for. Those results lead someone with OCD, someone like yourself, to find a more fulfilling life.

Judy Lair

Licensed Therapist, LPCC

I’m headed for my 21st year as a licensed therapist and love helping people break free from OCD. I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy during sessions, which I learned how to use early on in my practice. I have only grown to become more confident in my ability to treat people effectively using ERP. I’m a published writer, including a book on OCD and how to move from fear to freedom. I’m excited to work with you and can’t wait to set you up for success in your ERP journey.

April Kilduff

Licensed Therapist, MA

I've been a licensed OCD therapist since 2009 and have an M.A. in Clinical Counseling from The Chicago School Of Professional Psychology. I have personally dealt with anxiety disorders myself, and use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy to treat OCD. I find working with people that have OCD rewarding when I see the changes they make after applying ERP tools into their lives.

Kara Lash

Licensed Therapist, LPCC

During my time in private practice as a licensed therapist, a family member and a friend described their OCD struggles to me. Once I discovered how often OCD was being mistreated, and the more I learned from people facing this challenge, the more I wanted to help those in need. Now that I specialize in OCD, I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy to treat anyone with this challenging disorder.

Julie Vierling

Licensed Therapist, LISW

I deal with anxiety myself and know the physical symptoms that go along with it. But I also know my anxiety is nothing compared to your OCD. I've been treating people with OCD for over 25 years as a licensed therapist, and I can tell you that out of all the available treatments out there, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy is your best option. It's the only therapy I use to treat OCD.

Cori Brittain

Licensed Therapy, LPCC

As a therapist, I am non-judgmental. Our sessions will be very collaborative—we'll start where you are and go from there, depending on what your needs are. When I'm not doing therapy, I love to be outside. My family has a lake house in Michigan that we go to often, and I love to go there with my son and my husband to kayak when we can.

Sheri Vehar

Licensed Therapist, LPCC-S

I’ve been a licensed counselor for over 25 years, worked as an outpatient and in-home therapist, treated youths with OCD, and even helped new therapists that I supervised with their anxiety issues. I trust practices that are well researched, such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. ERP is considered the gold standard of OCD treatment and allows me to help people with OCD on their way to recovery.

Jonathon Du Ross

Licensed Therapist, LMFT

I've spent the past several years treating OCD, as well as helping people with complex trauma, autism, and more. After spending time in private practice and a community mental health facility, I now specialize in OCD treatment. I use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy because ERP has been proven to treat any OCD subtype.

Jamie Fall

Licensed Therapist, LPCC

I want to know about your personality, and I want you to get to know me. I am non-judgmental, and I understand that you may be really suffering. I will never forget that.

Patricia Sinclair

Licensed Therapist, LISW-S

I specialize in OCD treatment using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, with over 25 years of experience as a licensed therapist. In addition to helping people overcome their OCD, I’ve done extensive trauma work and crisis support along with treating depression, trichotillomania (hair-pulling), anxiety, and much more. When it comes to treating OCD symptoms, ERP is a game changer. I’ve seen many people get their life back using exposure exercises. My goal is to help you achieve the same thing.

Makayla Gerhardt

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

My first priority as a therapist is to build trust. I know the thoughts you're having might be distressing. You can tell me anything. I won't judge you, and I will meet you where you're at, as an individual. Some fun facts about me: Every week, I get a Netflix DVD—yes, a physical DVD—sent to me. I love cinema. I also love watching The Price Is Right. I think I'm an older woman inside.

Joshua Hamrick

Licensed Therapist, MA

One of the most important things about therapy is the connection and relationship between a therapist and the person seeking therapy. I work really hard not only to help both of us feel connected and heard but also for you to feel like this is a partnership. We're going to get a little uncomfortable together, because that's where most of the good work happens. Outside of work, I really enjoy spending time with my family and my daughter, cooking new foods, and playing chess.

Matthew McKinley

Licensed Therapist, MA

I prioritize human connection. We're here as two humans, trying to improve those negative symptoms that you want to change. I will help you feel understood, and I hope you will understand me. In session, we will look at what OCD does in your daily life; I won't throw buzzwords at you. A fun fact about me: I have been studying with a Tibetan lama for 15 years. That study, and that Buddhist community I've found, has changed my life.

Callie Wheeler

Licensed Therapist, MA

As a therapist, I want to create a non-judgmental space where everyone feels welcome and believes they can truly be themselves and grow. Outside of therapy, I love traveling. A fun fact about me: I love cats and have just given two kittens a home.
