Germs, losing control, death, contamination, losing/forgetting something) Unwanted thoughts (ex. Taboo or forbidden thoughts involving sex or religion, thoughts of harm towards self or others) Wanting to have things in perfect order or symmetry Obsessions vs GAD: You may be thinking, “What’s the difference between obsessions and anxiety symptoms?” The DSM categorizes generalized anxiety disorder and OCD completely separately, but I like to think of them as close cousins. Anxiety is “apprehensive expectation,” meaning an individual is worried about something that might happen due to experience (or lack of), and the cause of the worry will change as events change around them. Obsessions are almost always the same regardless of what is going on in one’s personal life, but they can develop and increase over time. An increase in obsessions usually leads to an increase in compulsions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/1731361422675-AQ5IMGGOTEQX4L6VEARX/unsplash-image-RwHv7LgeC7s.jpg Blog - Understanding Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder  - Make it stand out Compulsions: The DSM defines these as: “Repetitive behaviors or mental acts that the individual feels driven to perform in response to an obsession or according to rules that must be applied rigidly.” “ The behaviors or mental acts are aimed at preventing or reducing anxiety or distress, or preventing some dreaded event or situation; however, these behaviors or mental acts are not connected in a realistic way with what they are designed to neutralize or prevent, or are clearly excessive.” Examples of Compulsions: Often, a person with OCD will describe their compulsions of “having to get it just right.” Hand washing Ordering or rearranging in specific ways Checking Praying Counting Silently repeating words to oneself https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/1731361738895-WRO71TVK2DAXNQ9Q43RN/unsplash-image-5hvn-2WW6rY.jpg Blog - Understanding Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder  - Make it stand out What causes OCD? There is currently no exact known cause for OCD, but research has found that the following categories can contribute to OCD symptoms. Genetics: It is not uncommon for individuals with OCD to pass down symptoms to their children. It is currently unknown what genes cause this in individuals. It is also not unlikely that a child witnessing a parent or guardian exhibiting symptoms would pick them up as well. Biology: individuals with OCD have been found to have differences in the frontal cortex and subcortical structures in the brain. These areas impact the ability to control behavior and emotional responses. Temperament: children who are more reserved, experience negative emotions, anxiety, and/or depression are more likely to develop OCD Childhood trauma: There is often an association between trauma and symptoms. Developing OCD can be a way of “feeling more in control,” with situations. What should I do if I think I may have OCD? First, know that you are not alone! The International OCD Foundation estimates that 1 in 100 people suffer from OCD symptoms There is treatment available and it is effective! Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP) are shown to be most effective in treating OCD and can be used in conjunction with SSRI medications.

I understand that it can be difficult to reach out for help, so I am always conscious of ensuring that therapy feels encouraging, inviting, and safe. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado and Missouri, and have been working with individuals and families for over ten years to navigate life’s struggles and live more fully. I won’t promise that all of your problems or difficult experiences will go away, but I will commit to helping you navigate through them in a way that feels genuine and allows you to take action towards the life and relationships you want. I was born and raised near Joplin, MO and grew up playing sports and spending time with family and friends. I moved to Springfield, MO and attended college at Missouri State University, receiving my Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology in 2010. In 2015 my husband and I decided to move to Woodland Park, CO. We enjoy the mountains, but also travel back to Missouri often. When I'm not working I enjoy hiking, camping, traveling, reading, attempting to cook, and hanging out with my family. Rate: $130/session Insurances Accepted: Aetna, Anthem/BCBS, Cigna, Medicaid https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/fedd66b5-aa22-4309-94e2-17946d5e3eeb/Paige+Lloyd.JPG Colorado Therapy Team - Paige Lloyd, LPC, PMH-C Mental Health Therapist A lucky few “get it right” the first time. For most of us, life is a process of learning as we evolve, as we edge closer to becoming the person we want to be. I am here to support you in this evolution. I enjoy working with teenagers, parents, and those working through anxiety and stress while trying to balance the demands of everyday life. I was born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, and attended University of California, Davis. After college I spent years working in human resources. My husband and I had a daughter during this time. I understand the rewards and challenges of navigating the complex balancing of marriage, motherhood, friendships and career. When I returned to school for a Master’s in Counseling Psychology from The Wright Institute in Berkeley, California, it was to allow me to do the work that I’ve always felt was important for me to do. We recently moved to Aurora, Colorado with three dogs and one cat in tow. I am enjoying the outdoor hiking and camping lifestyle that the Centennial State provides, while making time to travel back to California to visit friends and family. Time with my family and friends (that are like family) is precious to me. I also enjoy cycling, travel, laughing and exploring what life has to offer. Rate: $120/session Insurances Accepted: Aetna, Anthem/BCBS, Cigna, Medicaid *Paige is providing telehealth only at this time for Colorado residents. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/c121754e-60c1-4d1a-852e-d6cb451c85df/IMG_2397.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/6fddbe56-7e02-48d8-a493-547a32bca359/IMG_2398.JPG https://www.explorationcounselingco.com/parentingvalues daily 0.75 2023-08-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/1662477516000-8JHL1BP3SWZTNX96ZR1N/unsplash-image-QkflfhJn1KA.jpg https://www.explorationcounselingco.com/postpartum-therapist-colorado-springs daily 0.75 2024-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/b8956358-0488-46aa-9679-1f8331dc79a2/postpartum+therapist+near+me+%281%29+%281%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/8d8d812b-bfba-409e-8520-99f693e8846b/postpartum+therapist+colorado+springs+%283%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/25a445a5-8e97-4356-8216-36f03161552b/prenatal+therapist+%281%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/34fc7807-29ee-4adf-af0d-14a8138c329a/therapist+for+pregnancy+%281%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/6c897bba-c8ab-4953-aa48-a0d19dd38cac/postpartum+counselors+near+me+%282%29.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/7beac755-0a5e-4108-af03-57875ddbfb80/pregnancy+therapist+%281%29.png https://www.explorationcounselingco.com/therapist-for-moms daily 0.75 2024-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/293774c9-0c91-4175-a196-1d6f972ab7fb/therapist+for+mothers.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/8af6f0b2-b847-4838-8b1f-ce3fef2b14c1/therapist+for+moms.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/4e7ca175-2054-4232-a5ff-1ca12829aeeb/counseling+for+moms.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/1fe2cee0-ac7e-4527-99e1-5f10b5b3cab6/_therapy+for+moms.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/234a3266-db00-4e43-8b61-1eb467af49a5/mom+therapy.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/391106ac-27bc-40e5-bf4a-0bb959111924/therapy+for+mothers.png https://www.explorationcounselingco.com/resources daily 0.75 2024-11-28 https://www.explorationcounselingco.com/colorado-springs-parent-counseling daily 0.75 2024-09-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fec052d7cf67c53580515a4/0c2bfb0e-19d0-405d-bd5d-e8ab6678898e/parenting+counseling+%281%29.png 3 of the Best Parent Counselors in Colorado Springs -
