More than weekly therapy
Weekly therapy can be helpful, but OCD often needs more practice than one session a week allows. Our intensive outpatient program adds group therapy and clinical contact across the week so your teen builds skills, hears how other teens handle the same intrusive thoughts, and has support between sessions.
- OCD-focused group sessions: Your teen practices ERP and CBT skills alongside other teens working on the same things,not reading about them in a workbook.
- Individual therapy: One-on-one work with a clinician who knows your teen’s specific obsessions, compulsions, and triggers.
- Family involvement: You learn what to reinforce at home, and what to stop accommodating, so OCD loses ground between sessions.
- Step-up to PHP if needed: If IOP isn’t enough, Partial Hospitalization is available in the same clinic.
OCD doesn’t take a week off between appointments. Our OCD therapy brings group therapy and individual sessions together so your teen has the structure, the skills, and the peer support to face the OCD loop more than once a week.
Why group therapy helps with OCD
OCD makes teens feel isolated and ashamed of their thoughts. Group therapy changes that. When your teen sits with other teens dealing with the same intrusive thoughts and compulsions, the shame gets smaller and the skills get more real.
- Normalizes the thoughts: Intrusive thoughts feel less terrifying when your teen hears other teens describe the same ones.
- Builds ERP practice: Group is a safe place to try exposure work and resist compulsions with support.
- Teaches by example: Your teen sees what’s working for other teens and what to try at home.
- Reduces isolation: OCD thrives in secrecy. Group breaks the secrecy without forcing anyone to share more than they’re ready for.
Types of OCD we treat
OCD shows up differently in every teen. Below are some of the presentations we commonly support in our group and individual sessions. If your teen’s OCD doesn’t look like any of these, the first call can confirm whether our program fits.
A typical week with us
Your teen comes into the clinic on a set schedule each week. The rhythm is built so therapy happens often enough to interrupt the OCD loop, and so school, sleep, and family time still fit.
- A consistent weekly cadence: 3 to 5 sessions per week at the same times, so the schedule is predictable for school and home.
- Three kinds of work each week: Group therapy, individual therapy, and family involvement, not all stacked into one day.
- One clinical team across all three: Your teen isn’t re-explaining their story to a new face every visit.
- Regular updates for you: You hear what’s working, what’s hard, and what to reinforce at home.
Group therapy interrupts OCD
When your teen watches another teenager resist a compulsion and see that nothing bad happens, it challenges the OCD story that the feeling is unbearable.
Three things happen inside our OCD group:
- Exposure hierarchy work: Your teen builds a list of triggers from least to most distressing. The group works through exposures together — starting where your teen can succeed and building toward harder practice.
- Live response prevention: Your teen practices resisting compulsions during group time with the clinician guiding and peers witnessing. Not talking about doing it later — doing it now.
- Between-session accountability: Group members report back on exposure homework and share what worked and what did not. Peer accountability drives follow-through in a way individual therapy cannot replicate.
Group sessions complement individual therapy. Your teen still works one-on-one with a clinician on specific OCD patterns. The group adds something individual therapy cannot provide, proof from other teenagers that exposures work.
Masters-level therapists
Our clinicians are trained in OCD Therapy and have experience running structured virtual groups for teenagers. This is a focused clinical group built around exposure hierarchy building, response prevention, and distress tolerance practice, not a general therapy group with OCD content added.
