Why our members love working with Judith
J.S.
Judith is amazing, I worked with her until I moved out of the state and I was devastated I couldn’t work with her anymore! She is easy to talk to, caring, and so helpful. She helped me with my OCD as well as other mental health issues related to it.
E.P.
Judy is the absolute best!!!
R.C.
Great help.
C.S.
Judith has guided me through ERP very well and I feel that I am nearly ready to “be my own therapist” which is the goal! She’s not afraid to tackle very tough subjects. ERP is uncomfortable but that’s the whole point. When I started, I could barely even say/hear a triggering word without freaking out and now I’m looking at actual pictures of trauma and able to handle it. I would’ve thought this was impossible a few months ago. The process works and Judith will help you through it if you stay open minded and brave enough to face your fears and discomfort.
C.S.
Thank you, Judith. I know, with your help, my daughter can tame OCD.
C.S.
Judy has such a calming personality and is helping me to understand how my ocd operates.
W.C.
My therapist is very helpful. I am able to cut things for dinner and shave my legs without too much anxiety.
D.F.
The best
R.M.
Judith S was an amazing counselor.
T.L.
His therapist is supportive, loving, patient kind. Always asking if it’s okay with him. We ate off to a good start
M.M.
My experience was helpful, and definitely introduced knew ways for me to understand my behavior. The therapy would be much better without the therapist typing and going through a list of questions. I repeated myself several times because the therapist was typing. The questions were repetitive even though I initially verbalized that was not a harm to myself. I understand the need for a paper trail, but that trail disconnects the therapist from the client. The therapist was helpful, but just fell victim to the insurance company requirements or legal requirements.
J.A.
Judy is very nice and listen very well.
K.R.
Very informative and helpful
K.R.
Very insightful and helpful
K.R.
Great session!
M.D.
My therapist changed my life! I feel like what has made this so much different than any other therapy I have tried is that Ms. Judith actually taught me how to manage my condition. She knew what she was doing and was consistent. She constantly gave me new information, education, and tools. She held me accountable and worked with me. I do not think I would be where I am today without her, and that's not to say that I was made reliant on her (like many therapists tend to do with OCD patients), but she made me independent again. Not only from OCD, and therapists, but from the reassurance I had to compulsively seek or the depression that made me feel incapable. She is truly a gift to people with my condition.
E.P.
Judy is amazing!!! Best therapist I have ever had. You are in good hands with her. I was just discharged today so with hard work, she will guide you in the right direction and help you every step of the way.
B.L.
We love Judith!
J.C.
Judith was very kind, and helped me feel very comfortable.
J.D.
i felt listened too and felt like there was something that could be done to eventually help me.
E.P.
I’ve been working with Judy since August and at this point I’m doing super well following her homework and how to respond to the ocd. I’m learning how to be my own therapist :) She’s shown me how to gain confidence and believe in myself and let me rule my life vs ocd deciding how I should live my life. She’s simply the best!
E.P.
Judy is the best and very good at catching OCD in its tracks. She helps me feel confident in my ability to handle OCD's lies. :)
E.P.
Judy is really great at listening and supporting me and helping me find confidence within myself :)
A.H.
This program/app has been vital in my recovery. The work you put is the “ Proof in the Pudding” . I recommend everyone here to acknowledge that the work will be hard but there is light at the end of this journey. Stay vigilant
E.P.
Judy is great! I feel like she really listens to my concerns, sets up good exposures, and I always learn something new about ocd in session. I always feel like I’m actively working on my issues with her.
N.Z.
In our first appointment, my daughter’s therapist was compassionate and easy to talk to. I shared a lot of complex medical and mental health history with her, and she listened attentively and kept track of it all. The session was well organized and focused, and left me feeling hopeful.
A.H.
My progress has not been linear but I’m almost recovered ! I have days, weeks that I don’t notice I have ocd. When ocd do occur It occurs for short time , in those moments I sit and let whatever thought pass . I still do erp when needed
G.S.
Can't believe the progress we made today, or that she was able to get him to touch his computer!
A.H.
The recovery is real, keep pushing everyone . We are all in the right direction
C.S.
First ERP today. I felt like Judith was good at asking questions about how I felt. What ERP I could handle. I'm nervous but optimistic about treatment.

My therapist is great, helped with routine maintenance and gave new erp suggestions. It’s been 4-5 months working with her , I can say with her help a lot of my ocd symptoms have drastically reduced ! I still have moments of uncertainty but I know it’s only ocd .
anonymous
It’s maintenance work at this point. I can confidently say I’m better , if the other therapist are like mine you’ll be better with due diligence and the effort you put in with the erp homework. I am on zero medication
anonymous
Feeling more like myself everyday, it takes time and you continuing your life regardless of the negative thoughts. They will lessen over time ! The therapist here are train to give you the tools you need to combat whatever theme you’re currently having . Stay active , you have a life to regain
anonymous
Judy is great! Looking so forward to check ins with her.
anonymous
A short but effective session. Focused/Zonned into some of my safety habits/compulsions . Working towards leaning into my erp when I feel stress/pressure. I know I’ll be a stronger person once I complete my hierarchy plan .
anonymous
Judith is very caring, knowledgeable and professional. I feel confident in her abilities to help me navigate this course
anonymous
My sessions went from 1 hr a week to now 30 minutes every two weeks! Progress was not linear and I’m still not 100 percent. What I can tell you is that eventually you’ll find good days where you will feel like yourself before ocd . Keep striving even when it’s hopeless . You’ll find out it’s actually not
anonymous
My therapist was very nice, understanding, and I feel that she will help me get through this.
anonymous
The change from the very beginning to now , has been noticeable. First let me be clear; you will only get what you put in . Compulsions are your enemy and erp is the key to beating those compulsions! The more you do your erp/homework , the more you’ll notice how whatever theme you have is not you/core values ! Listen to your therapist
anonymous
Judith Steverson, my therapist, is a genuinely caring and knowledgeable person. We had an excellent session today as I inch my way into ERP! I was ready to give up on everything a week ago and she guided me into believing I can work this.
anonymous
Getting the correct help is vital and I see improvement thanks to my therapist. I also like many of the people here thought it couldn’t get better , but it can . Please do your erp and stop looking for reassurance. Thanks in advance to my therapist for the tools and the tough homework to beat this
anonymous
After going over some of my fears and hearing myself say them out loud to a professional. I realize how my thinking really was incorrect, erp really does help if you stick to it . Yes I have bad days but therapist makes fade away .
anonymous
Another great session , could tell that I’m getting better . Still have my moments but I’m not triggered as much !
anonymous
Ms Steverson is very professional, pleasant and knowledgeable. I found her very easy to talk to.
anonymous
Another step towards getting my life back ! I would recommend more people to take opportunity to get better. Looking forward to the next session .
anonymous
Great second session, enjoyed my full hour. I know things will progress in a positive direction if I continue to the program ! I still have my moments but with her help I’m feeling light in the darkness . 🤙🏾
anonymous
Feel that she did a good job explaining and detailing a plan for me to recover ! Hopefully will get back to my normal routine soon
anonymous
I really enjoy that Judith is so on top of my OCD wayyyyy more than I thought I was. She notices things about my mental compulsions and points things out that only someone who really understands OCD could ever point out. Judith is extremely helpful, and I'm extremely confident in her abilities as an OCD therapist. Thorough is what I would call her.
