About Our
OCD Treatments
OCD-Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, often mischaracterised as a disciplinary and perfectionist personality trait or excessive worry, is in fact a complex psychological condition majorly driven by impulsive and intrusive thoughts, and distressing anxiety. OCD demands compassionate care with clinical precision and respect, identifying the pressure it places on individuals seeking care and their courage, and we at Gainesville Psychiatry believe in delivering exactly the same.
The treatments we provide for OCD are deeply insightful, clinically grounded in careful psychiatric evaluations, and scientifically backed, to help patients get the control of their lives back in their hands with clarity and balanced emotions.
Understanding OCD Beyond Assumptions
Obsessive Compulsive Disorders is mostly characterised by some continuous unwanted thoughts taking over your mind and creating anxiety that follows by repetitive behaviours or mental rituals that gets performed in the response to that unwanted thoughts in an attempt to minimise the anxiety. This cycle continues and affects the day to day functioning, relationships, academics or professional performances, and overall wellbeing.
Here at Gainesville Psychiatry, we believe that there’s always much more in the people than they show. We go beneath the surface level symptom and take the proper amount of time to understand how uniquely OCD affects different people including the triggers, emotional patterns, and the other themes, to get accurate knowledge and craft a treatment plan accordingly.
A Comprehensive OCD Evaluation
A comprehensive evaluation begins when the assessments are well structured, clinically grounded, and respectful of every patient’s experience. OCD symptoms often get misunderstood as depression, anxiety, and other psychiatric conditions and for that, accurate diagnosis is truly essential for effective OCD treatments that are clinically grounded, well structured, and respectful of every patient’s experience.
An OCD evaluation may include:
- Deep clinical discussions surrounding intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviours and stress patterns
- Reviewing psychiatric, medical and personal developmental history
- Assessment of anxiety severity, emotional regulations, and functional impact
- Recognising cooccurring conditions such as depression, and other anxiety disorders
- Diagnostic clarification by the usage of established clinical criteria
