OCD Specialist Near Me: Evidence-based OCD Treatment in Orlando
If you're searching for an OCD specialist near me, Empathy Health Clinic provides expert evaluation and medication management for obsessive-compulsive disorder from board-certified psychiatrists. OCD is a complex condition that requires specialized knowledge to treat effectively, and our team has the expertise to help you find relief from intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors.
OCD affects approximately 2-3% of the population, yet many people go years without proper diagnosis or treatment. Our psychiatrists use validated OCD assessment tools and detailed clinical interviews to accurately diagnose OCD, assess severity, and create a medication plan that works alongside evidence-based therapy like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).
Same-week appointments are typically available because we understand that OCD symptoms can be extremely distressing and time-consuming. We offer both in-person and telehealth appointments throughout Florida.

OCD Psychiatry Services in Orlando, FL
Comprehensive OCD Evaluation
Thorough psychiatric assessment using validated OCD severity scales and clinical interviews to diagnose OCD, measure symptom severity, identify obsession and compulsion patterns, and develop a targeted treatment plan.
SSRI Medication Management for OCD
Expert prescribing and monitoring of SSRI medications at therapeutic doses for OCD. OCD often requires higher SSRI doses than depression, and our psychiatrists understand the specific dosing strategies needed for effective OCD treatment.
ERP Therapy Coordination
Coordination with Exposure and Response Prevention therapists to ensure your medication and therapy work together for optimal results. We can refer you to experienced ERP therapists and collaborate on your integrated treatment plan.
Why See a Specialist for Ocd?
OCD-Specific Medication Expertise
OCD medication management differs significantly from treating anxiety or depression. Our psychiatrists understand that OCD typically requires higher SSRI doses, longer trial periods, and sometimes augmentation strategies that general practitioners may not be familiar with.
Accurate OCD Diagnosis
OCD is often misdiagnosed as generalized anxiety, depression, or even psychosis. Our specialists carefully evaluate your symptoms to provide an accurate diagnosis and distinguish OCD from other conditions with overlapping features.
Compassionate, Judgment-Free Care
We understand that OCD intrusive thoughts can feel deeply distressing and embarrassing to share. Our psychiatrists provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can discuss your symptoms openly to receive the best possible care.
