Thelma Rivera

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I’ve been practicing as a licensed therapist since 2005. My main area of focus is OCD with specialized training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. I use ERP to treat people with all types of OCD themes, including aggressive, taboo, and a range of other unique types.

Shanna Lindstrom

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I’m a licensed therapist with specialized training in treating OCD using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, the gold standard of treatments. ERP treats all types of intrusive thoughts, including violent and taboo, so that you can overcome OCD.

Kellie Kintz

Director of Therapist Culture and Qualified Supervisor for Registered Clinical Social Work Interns (RCSWI)- Florida

I am a LCSW with over 30 years of clinical experience in the South Florida area working with clients diagnosed with OCD, Anxiety and other Mood Disorders, Personality Disorders, Trauma, Crisis, Dual Diagnosis, and Grief & Loss. I have worked in large teaching hospitals, inpatient and residential psychiatric units, IOPs, PHPs, OPs, private practices and hospices. At NOCD, our mission is to restore hope for people with OCD through better awareness and treatment. Our focus as a speciality-provider is on the NOCD 5 Diagnoses: OCD, Body Focused Repetitive Behaviors and Tics, Hoarding, Co-morbid to OCD Anxiety & Related Disorders. I am proficient in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy, considered the gold standard treatment for OCD. ERP requires you to face your fears. As your therapist, I know how to guide you so that you can walk through that fear and reach the reward that awaits you.

Justin Trout

Licensed Therapist, LPC

Starting when I was young, through some personal experiences, I have felt called to help people. I love seeing people overcome hills and valleys and by the end of therapy be able to say, "I feel better."

Jason Gibbs

Licensed Therapist, Ph.D.

As a therapist, I try to create a welcoming, warm environment. When I first meet with someone, I like to start off by finding out what they want to get out of therapy. I'll craft a treatment plan with you based on that, realizing that other concerns can arise on a week-to-week basis. Outside of work, I'm a big fan of rock and metal music and love going to concerts. I also have three sugar gliders that I've had for about seven years. They are miniature flying squirrels, basically. So during our sessions, if there's ever any weird chirping that comes through a wall in the background, that's probably what you're hearing.

Kelsey Hernandez

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I'm really big on the idea that you get out of therapy what you put into it. I'm your GPS, and you're in the driver's seat. I'm here to support and guide you to your destination. But you're still the one who’s in charge. A few fun facts about me: I just got a puppy who has been consuming most of my free time. I've also done three international trips solo—to Western Europe, Eastern Europe, and Thailand.

Sarah Uberti

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

As a therapist, I always come from a place of non-judgment and empathy. I try to fully understand the person I'm working with. I believe that education is important; when people understand the different facets of what they're experiencing, they can tackle it better. Outside of work, I'm a bit of a gamer. I love to play tabletop games like D&D, online games like MMOs and survival games. I also love taking hikes and playing with my dog.

Samantha Smith

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

I treat OCD with empathy and sensitivity, mixed with directness. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family at the beach or at a BBQ.

Nikki Dahl

Licensed Therapist, LCSW

I have a pretty flexible approach to therapy. (There will be a steady flow of smiley faces in your messaging inbox that you are not obligated to respond to.) My focus allows a completely unique experience for every member. I tend to get along well with members who are very particular about details, because I care about the mapping of your OCD being accurate to your experience. The only thing more important is that you feel like you have agency throughout the entire therapy process. Outside of work, I enjoy nail art, live music, learning new things, and a totally normal and appropriate amount of video gaming.

Mena Soliman

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

I'm a direct and collaborative therapist. I will not force you to do anything you are uncomfortable with, but I will push you when necessary. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, watching mindless shows together. I also enjoy dancing, singing and reading. When the weather permits, I like to go hiking and biking.

Paula Fistein

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

My approach to treating OCD involves learning how OCD presents in a person's life, then building a treatment plan together—one that feels comfortable but is also challenging and can produce successful outcomes. During therapy, I'm non-judgmental and open to questions. I know this can be a scary process. I want members to feel safe and comfortable enough to share and express themselves. When I'm not doing therapy, I read everything from psychology to romance novels. On the weekends, I enjoy riding my motorcycle with my husband and friends, and I love to go hiking and take pictures of nature along the way.

Nicole Connolly

Licensed Therapist, LMHC

During therapy with me, you are in the driver's seat. You decide what activities we do and the pace of our work. I facilitate the overall experience: the structure of treatment, how sessions are organized, and assign the daily homework. Outside of work, I enjoy nature, reading, and making tea.

Brooke Tominey

Licensed Therapist, MA

My approach to treating OCD is a combination of ERP (exposure and response prevention), CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy), and ongoing symptom assessment. It's important to me to make sure you feel safe to gradually expose yourself to those triggering situations/environments to achieve the best results and learn to cope accordingly. Outside of work, I enjoy going to the beach, reading, watching YouTube and football, being around my friends and family, and watching the sunset all as a means of self-care so I am able to recharge!

Deirdre James

Licensed Therapist, MS

My approach to treating OCD is to meet you where you are and collaborate to create appropriate exposures while challenging you to continue moving forward. I understand that each person is unique and makes every effort to create individualized treatment plans. I provide empathy, compassion, and a non-judgmental approach. Outside of work, I enjoy reading, baking, playing with my dog, and spending time with my family.

Regina Thomas

Licensed Therapist, MS

As your OCD therapist, I'll teach you how to regain control over repetitive behaviors by utilizing exposure prevention response techniques. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, watching rom-coms, listening to jazz and traveling. A fun fact about me: I lived in Alaska for 15 years and loved it.

Russell MacKay

Licensed Therapist, MC

As your OCD therapist, I'll help you recognize and begin to face your rituals, work through them, and find peace on the other side. I'll encourage you and be present as you face hard moments. Outside of work, I love photography, travel, reading, and nature. I enjoy spending time with my family and dogs. Working out and daily wellness activities help me feel better, enjoy life more, and show up in my professional life.

Christina Hauritz

Licensed Therapist, LCMHC

As a therapist, my approach to treating OCD is rooted in empathy, collaboration, and evidence-based interventions. I strive to create a safe and supportive therapeutic environment where members feel heard, understood, and empowered to confront their OCD symptoms and work toward recovery. Outside of work, I cherish spending quality time with my family, enjoying outdoor activities, exploring new places, and simply sharing laughter and stories at home. Being active is also integral to my lifestyle, whether it's hiking, cycling, or powerlifting. One fun fact about me: I've embraced adventure by moving across the country four different times. Each relocation has brought new experiences, challenges, and opportunities for personal growth.
