A focused, structured approach to help you break out of the OCD cycle, with expert support.
OCD can take over your time, your energy, and your ability to live your life, until everything starts to revolve around it. When it feels constant or all consuming, weekly therapy can start to feel too slow, especially when OCD feels relentless.
Many of the people we work with come to us after trying multiple approaches, including ERP, and feeling like they’re still stuck.
If you’ve tried therapy before (even ERP) and still feel stuck, or like nothing is really shifting, you’re not alone. Often, it’s not about trying harder. It’s about having the right structure, frequency, and real-time support, especially when OCD is loudest.
Our intensive ERP program is designed to help you build momentum, stay engaged, and begin changing your relationship with OCD in a meaningful way.
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is the most effective, evidence-based treatment for OCD.
Intensive ERP means doing this work more frequently, with more structure, and with closer support from your therapist. Instead of once-weekly sessions, you’ll engage in consistent, structured therapy over a shorter period of time.
This helps you:
Clients often tell us that having support in real time, instead of trying to apply ERP on their own between sessions is what helps things start to shift.
We move at a pace that challenges OCD while making sure you feel supported enough to stay engaged in the process.
We start with a comprehensive assessment to understand your symptoms, your history, and what’s been keeping OCD stuck in place.
Together, we create a structured treatment plan based on your goals so you have a clear, structured path forward.
You’ll begin intensive ERP sessions where your therapist works alongside you in real time, helping you face fears and begin resisting compulsions step by step, in the moments it matters most.
This level of structure and support is especially helpful if you’ve found it hard to stay consistent or make progress between weekly sessions. This structure is designed to give you enough support and repetition to start creating real change.
Sessions may take place in-clinic, virtually, or in real-world settings depending on what will support you best.
You’re supported throughout the entire process, so you’re never left to figure this out on your own.
We specialize exclusively in OCD.
Many of our clients have worked with multiple providers before coming to OCD North. What’s often been missing is consistent, OCD-specific support during the moments when it actually matters.
That means your care is
We don’t just talk about ERP: we guide you through it and do it with you, in real time, when OCD is actually showing up.
You’ll have support in the moments that matter most: when OCD shows up and asks you to respond. That’s where real change happens.
Clients often describe this as a gradual shift: where OCD feels less in control, even if it hasn’t disappeared. ERP isn’t about getting rid of thoughts. It’s about changing how you respond to them. That shift doesn’t happen all at once, it happens through repeated practice.
With consistent practice and support, many clients begin to:
Progress can feel challenging at first, especially if you’ve been stuck for a long time. That’s part of the process. With the right support, meaningful change is possible.
We offer Intensive ERP both in-person and virtually, depending on your needs and location.
We’ll work with you to find a structure that supports your progress while still fitting into your life.
Taking this step can feel difficult, especially if you’ve been dealing with OCD for a long time or past treatment hasn’t helped the way you hoped.
You don’t have to navigate this alone.
