Hi hi! I’m Kaitlyn, an LCSW in Virginia specializing in grief therapy and anxiety management. I spend my days in a school division providing mental health services to rural kiddos, and then I come home to chase my own kiddos. Providing therapy brings me back to myself, as strange as that sounds. I am fueled by helping others!

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Charlottesville
Finding OCD therapists in Charlottesville starts with knowing which type of care to look for. Exposure and response prevention, or ERP, is one therapy approach some clinicians use to support people with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and not all therapists are trained in it. If you’re looking for support with obsessions, compulsions, intrusive thoughts, rituals, or anxiety that shows up alongside OCD, review therapist profiles for specific mentions of ERP, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, or OCD-focused care.
Charlottesville is a smaller market, so the number of local therapists with specific OCD and ERP training may be more limited than in larger cities. Virtual appointments can expand your options while still letting you search for therapists licensed in Virginia. As you compare therapists, look beyond whether OCD appears in a specialty list. Read each bio for details about ERP training, appointment availability, session structure, and whether a free phone consultation is offered, since those details can help you find a stronger practical and clinical fit.
Therapy in Charlottesville can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you search for OCD therapists who are accepting new patients, review detailed bios, check your estimated out-of-pocket cost, and book directly when you’re ready.
