OCD, ERP & Perinatal Therapy in Texas
Specialized Telehealth Therapy for Adults Across Texas | Serving Westlake, Austin & Surrounding Communities
When you are dealing with constant doubt, looping intrusive thoughts, or anxiety that feels impossible to turn off, it can feel like your world has narrowed. Everyday decisions become exhausting, and attempts to find certainty or relief may only provide temporary comfort.
At Red Elm Psychotherapy, we provide evidence-based therapy for OCD, anxiety, and perinatal mental health concerns. Whether you are struggling with intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, overwhelming worry, or anxiety during pregnancy or postpartum, our goal is to help you build lasting change—not just temporary relief.
We frequently work with individuals and families in Westlake, Austin, and surrounding communities who are seeking specialized care from doctoral-level psychologists with advanced training in OCD and perinatal mental health.
Our Specialties in Texas
OCD & Anxiety Treatment (ERP)
We specialize in treating obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard treatment for OCD. Rather than simply helping you cope with anxiety, ERP helps you change your relationship with uncertainty so anxiety loses its grip over time.
We work with individuals experiencing:
Contamination OCD
Harm OCD
Sexual orientation OCD (SO-OCD)
Existential OCD
Distressing intrusive thoughts that feel frightening, real, or out of character
Anxiety disorders and perfectionism
Perinatal & Postpartum Mental Health
Pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition to parenthood can bring unexpected emotional challenges. Whether you're struggling with anxiety during pregnancy, intrusive thoughts after your baby is born, or adjusting after a difficult birth experience, you don't have to navigate it alone.
We provide evidence-based treatment for:
Postpartum anxiety
Postpartum OCD
Postpartum depression
Adjustment to parenthood
Psychological Testing in Texas
In addition to therapy services, Red Elm Psychotherapy provides focused psychological testing services for individuals and families seeking greater clarity.
