OCD treatment for Hudson patients
Finding an ERP therapist can be the hardest part of OCD treatment in and around Hudson. We help Hudson patients locate trained therapists, including those who offer video sessions, and we see students from Hudson's elementary schools, Hudson Memorial School and Alvirne High School as well as adults.
Living in Hudson
Hudson patients often split their week between home, Nashua and workplaces along Route 3. Families with students at Alvirne High School and Hudson Memorial School frequently ask us about attention, anxiety and stress around exams and sports. Video visits after school or work keep care going without extra trips.
Intrusive thoughts
Having intrusive thoughts does not mean you want to act on them. It is a recognized feature of OCD and responds to treatment.
Getting care from Hudson
Our office at 215 South Broadway in Salem is about 25 to 30 minutes from Hudson, so in-person visits are practical. Many Hudson patients come in for the first appointment and use secure video for follow-ups.
