How to choose an anxiety and OCD therapist

  1. Check the license with the state or provincial board that issued it; most boards publish a free online lookup.
  2. Make sure anxiety and OCD therapy is a regular part of their work, and ask what approach they use and why.
  3. If OCD is the concern, ask whether they offer exposure and response prevention (ERP) and how they were trained in it.
  4. Ask about fees, insurance and the cancellation policy before the first session. In the US, if you are uninsured or paying yourself, you can ask for a good faith estimate of expected charges.
  5. Check practical fit: in-person or online sessions, evening times, and how soon they have an opening.
  6. After a few sessions, ask yourself whether you feel heard. Changing to a different provider is common and fine.

Questions to ask an anxiety and OCD therapist

  • Are you accepting new clients, and how soon could I start?
  • Which license do you hold, and in which state or province?
  • How much of your work is anxiety and OCD therapy?
  • Which approach do you use for anxiety or OCD, and why?
  • What do you charge per session, and do you take my insurance or provide a superbill?
  • Do you offer online sessions?
  • What is your cancellation policy?
  • What do you keep confidential, and when would you have to share information?

Clear Light Therapy | Anxiety, OCD & Eating Disorder Therapy has the most, 42 reviews, and ranks #4. We adjust ratings for review count, so a few five-star reviews cannot top the list.

How does RankedPsychologists rank anxiety and OCD therapists?

Each anxiety and OCD therapist gets a 0–100 RP Score from eight published factors, led by reputation (25%), specialty focus (25%), proximity (15%) and availability (10%). A practice with no Google reviews scores zero on rating, review volume and recency; other factors we cannot measure are left out. Only practices with a confirmed specialty and 3 or more reviews, or a claimed profile, are ranked.

Do anxiety and OCD therapists outside Parsippany count in this ranking?

Yes, if they are within 25 mi of the Parsippany city center, our service radius for anxiety and OCD therapists. Each listing shows where the practice is based and how far away it is. Proximity is 15% of the RP Score, so a nearby practice gets a small edge.

Can anxiety and OCD therapists pay to rank higher on RankedPsychologists?

No. The RP Score never reads payment status, and this ranking has 0 paid placements. Up to 3 Featured practices may appear above the list, labelled Sponsored and showing their honest rank.

How are anxiety and OCD therapists in Parsippany ranked?

Each practice gets an RP Score from 0 to 100 from 8 published factors, including its Google rating, how clearly it focuses on anxiety and OCD therapy and how close it is. Sponsored placements are shown separately and never change rank. The score does not measure treatment outcomes.

What kinds of therapy are used for anxiety and OCD?

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is widely used for anxiety disorders. For OCD, a form of CBT called exposure and response prevention (ERP) is commonly recommended. Ask a therapist which approach they use and what training they have in it.

Can I see an anxiety and OCD therapist online?

Often, yes. Licensing generally follows where you are during the session, so the provider needs to be licensed or authorized there. In the US, psychologists in PSYPACT member states can offer telepsychology to clients in other member states; counselors and social workers have their own rules. In Canada, ask whether the provider is registered in your province.

What if I need help right now?

Do not wait for a consultation. Call or text 988 (US and Canada) if you are in crisis or thinking about suicide, at any time. In an emergency, call 911.
