OCD treatment for Manchester patients

Measuring progress
Your psychiatrist uses a standard OCD rating scale to track change over time and adjusts treatment if improvement stalls.
Living in Manchester
Manchester patients often tell us that finding a psychiatrist who is taking new patients was the hardest step. Some live within walking distance of Elm Street, others in quieter neighborhoods near Lake Massabesic or the Goffstown line, and many juggle shift work at the city's hospitals, schools and warehouses. Video visits let them keep appointments without fighting city traffic or finding parking downtown.
How OCD shows up
- Contamination fears and repeated washing
- Checking locks, appliances or messages again and again
- Needing things to feel exactly right
- Unwanted violent, sexual or religious thoughts that cause distress
- Repeated reassurance-seeking or mental reviewing
