Obsessive-compulsive disorder therapists & psychiatrists in Bloomington, IN

I’m passionate about supporting clients as they navigate life’s challenges. I believe everyone deserves to have someone by their side through both the highs and the lows.

I take a person-centered approach to therapy, meeting you exactly where you are and creating a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported—especially during vulnerable moments. I show up as my authentic self in sessions so that you can feel comfortable doing the same. My goal is that each time we meet, you leave feeling at least a little lighter—whether that comes from feeling heard, gaining insight, or simply having a space to release what you’ve been carrying.

With over 15 years of experience, I bring both professional knowledge and genuine compassion into my work. I’m known for being kind, approachable, and deeply committed to the therapeutic process.

I’m also a certified yoga instructor and enjoy incorporating mindfulness and grounding techniques into sessions when it feels helpful. I believe in the connection between mind and body and strive to support clients in feeling more balanced, present, and connected to themselves.

It’s truly an honor to walk alongside my clients as they heal, grow, and move forward.

My name is Doug L. Watson, MSN, APRN, PMHNP-BC, RN, and I’m a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with three years of experience treating clients across the lifespan. While I’m trained to work with individuals of all ages, about 85% of my practice has been focused on pediatrics and adolescents—a population I’m truly passionate about serving. I see children as young as five years old through Telehealth up to ages 75 or higher if needed. I earned both my BSN and MSN from Indiana Wesleyan University, completing my graduate degree in October 2022.

I genuinely love what I do and have always felt called to the field of psychiatry. Becoming a Psych/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner has been one of the most fulfilling decisions of my life. I’m excited to be on my own, building a lasting career. I’m committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care and making a positive difference in the lives of my clients and their families.

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who believes therapy should feel safe, supportive, and human. I offer a warm, straightforward space where you can talk openly and feel understood. I help clients navigate anxiety, trauma, and overwhelming stress using practical tools and a calm, steady approach. My goal is to help you feel more stable, more empowered, and more in control of your life.

Hi! I have a LCSW with a MSW. By integrating evidence-based practices such as EMDR, CBT, DBT, CPT, and ACT, I will work alongside you to develop practical strategies for overcoming challenges and achieving your goals.

At the heart of my practice is a genuine desire to help people grow. I believe every person has the ability to create a life that feels meaningful, connected, and aligned with their values. My role is to walk alongside clients as they navigate challenges, build new skills, and discover what’s possible for them. My style is warm, direct, and growth‐oriented.

Many people seek psychiatric care when anxiety, depression, ADHD, OCD, trauma, or persistent stress begin interfering with work, relationships, school, or daily life. Whether you're experiencing symptoms for the first time or have been struggling for years, my goal is to provide thoughtful, evidence-based care tailored to your individual needs.

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC), I provide comprehensive psychiatric evaluations, medication management, supportive psychotherapy, and pharmacogenomic testing when clinically appropriate. Pharmacogenomic testing can provide additional information about how your genetics may influence the way your body processes or responds to certain psychiatric medications. While it does not predict exactly which medication will work best, it can be a useful tool when selecting or adjusting treatment, particularly for individuals who have experienced medication side effects, limited benefit from previous treatments, or multiple medication trials.

I believe treatment works best when it is collaborative, personalized, and focused on your goals. Together, we’ll consider your symptoms, history, preferences, previous treatment experiences, and, when helpful, pharmacogenomic information to develop a treatment plan that feels both clinically sound and individualized to you.

You may be trying to keep things together while feeling anxious, down, emotionally exhausted, or unsure how to get back to feeling like yourself. Maybe past experiences are still affecting you, relationships have become difficult to navigate, or you're struggling to understand why you keep reacting in ways you don't want to. For teens, this can look like withdrawing, feeling misunderstood, struggling at school, or having emotions that feel difficult to manage. For parents, it may mean trying to support your child while also feeling unsure of what to do next. I work with teens, parents, and adults navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, and relationship challenges, and I strive to make therapy feel warm, genuine, and easy to talk about.
