When Obsessive Thoughts Take Over

Living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting. Constant intrusive thoughts, checking behaviors, or rituals may dominate your day, leaving you stressed, frustrated, or drained. You might find yourself repeating tasks, seeking reassurance, or avoiding situations all in an effort to feel “safe.”

These patterns aren’t just inconvenient; they can impact work, relationships, and overall quality of life. Many people struggle silently, thinking they must cope on their own but OCD is highly treatable.

Understanding OCD

OCD involves unwanted, distressing thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) aimed at reducing anxiety. Left untreated, OCD can increase stress, fuel perfectionism, and interfere with everyday functioning.

The good news? With the right therapy, you can regain control, reduce compulsions, and live a balanced, fulfilling life.

Our Approach at Grove Counseling

At Grove Counseling in Leeds, AL, we specialize in treating OCD using evidence-based therapies that are compassionate, practical, and effective.

Our approach includes:

  • Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) – the gold standard for OCD, helping confront fears without performing compulsions.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – identifies and challenges intrusive thoughts.

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) – teaches mindfulness and acceptance to reduce distress.

  • Integration with other therapies – including Psychodynamic and Person-Centered approaches for deeper insight and long-term growth.

We tailor every treatment plan to your individual needs, empowering you to break cycles of anxiety and regain control of daily life.
