OCD Counseling in Dover, DE—Counselors and Therapists for OCD

Thriveworks Dover understands the complexities of living with OCD. The uniqueness of each thought and ritual can make it can feel isolating. But you are not fighting this alone. Dover counselors for OCD are here and will walk with you every step of the way. Together, we can wrestle back control of your mind and life.

What Is OCD?

OCD is first and foremost a disorder where obsessions and compulsions combine to form urges that are strong enough to override all other rational thoughts. A few examples of some obsessions OCD might bring include:

  • Repeated unwanted ideas
  • Fear of contamination
  • Aggressive impulses
  • Persistent sexual thoughts
  • Images of hurting someone you love
  • Thoughts that you might cause others harm
  • Thoughts that you might be harmed

There are of course many more intrusive thoughts you might be experiencing. Often, people will experience more than one, adding to the complexity and fear involved with OCD. Common compulsions include:

  • Constant checking
  • Constant counting
  • The repeated cleaning of one or more items
  • Repeatedly washing your hands
  • Constantly checking the stove, door locks, or windows
  • Arranging items to face a certain way

Compulsions are unique to the person, although they probably have used the same compulsion for a while.

What Does Treatment Look Like?

Thriveworks Dover always puts the client first. We always create an individualized personal treatment plan so that you can build the life best fit for you.

Thriveworks Dover is excited to begin that journey with you. Simply call us at (302) 365-8761 to get started today.

Shannon Clay is an absolute GEM! I've never know a "professional" who exuded an empathy and compassion for what they do as a profession, as Shannon does! She personifies an uncanny willingness to provide resources and a listening ear. She's never judgemental and gives the best advice! I am a better person for having met her. I pray she goes far in this business, especially in the climate we are living in nowadays!

I called to make an appointment for my daughter and Kenyata was SO friendly and helpful. She answered all of my questions and was so easy to talk to. Scheduling as a first-time patient is always so difficult, but this was so easy and accomodating. If the scale is 1-5, 5 being the best, I'd give my experience a 10!

I’ve been searching for the right fit. Had almost given up after 2 unsuccessful relationships with other counselors in the last year. Thriveworks makes scheduling easy, takes my insurance (Aetna), and offers quality, invested care. For the first time, I look forward to counseling sessions and feel so much better after! Hend Salah is helping me see things differently and get my life back on track.

I recommend Michael Beckham without reservation. He was both a colleague of mine and a supervisor and I've known him to be an outstanding, caring clinician. Michael is highly intelligent, warm, empathetic and effective. He has a great deal of experience and is beloved by his patients.
