Are Oregon OCD therapists accepting new clients?

What's the best therapy for OCD?
The gold standard is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a specific form of CBT where you gradually face triggers without performing compulsions. General talk therapy alone often isn't enough for OCD, so look for a therapist specifically trained in ERP — you can filter this directory for OCD specialists.
Is ERP scary, and will my therapist force me to do exposures?
ERP is challenging but always collaborative — you build an exposure hierarchy together and start with manageable steps. A good ERP therapist never forces you; they coach you to tolerate discomfort so it fades over time.
Can OCD be treated without medication?
Many people improve with ERP alone. For moderate to severe OCD, an SSRI (often at higher doses than for depression) combined with ERP is common. A therapist can coordinate with a prescriber if medication makes sense for you.
