Any idea how to find an OCD Therapist that is any good? I live in MA and it seems impossible. Everyone I try seems to be a jack of all psychiatric disorders and it ends up just being a waste of time. The whole system is set up to milk the insurance company because they are being paid by the hour so it’s in their best interest if you don’t get better *quickly*. At least that’s what it seems like. Tried the NOCD directory and they don’t service MA.

I'm currently visiting my third therapist in the last three years and none of them have helped me so far. None of them have given me any type of diagnosis so I'm not even sure if I actually have OCD, and it's driving me mad. The last session I had, I even felt like it made things worse rather that it helped. I wanna feel that trust to my therapist that you should feel to be able to share your emotions but I don't. I feel like its not going anywhere, like it's useless. Lately I've been thinking about finding a therapist here at NOCD, I've even looked up some specific people and they all seem really nice and sweet.

Hello everyone I've been suffering with OCD since quarantine; so about 5-ish years. Im now in my first year in college and to be honest I have nothing. No insurance, no job, and no car. Recently ive been going through POCD and its really messing me up a lot. Im scared, worried, and confused because its the opposite of what I visualize myself and my future, which is having a nice house and a family. I recently found out about the NOCD app and I still learning about it. I obviously can't afford therapy at all but I heard that with insurance can cover most of it or even all of the cost of therapy. When I look into it, it turns out theres many insurance providers and I have no clue if there's any that covers therapy or even how to apply for it. So please, can anybody recommend any good insurance providers that can cover therapy?

I’m so devastated. I made an appointment through NOCD and they cancelled me. I have Medicaid and at first they said they took it but I got an email back saying they don’t. I offered to pay out of pocket because at this point I’m willing to pay the amount but they still rejected me. The place where I was supposed to find help and they turn me away and I’m drowning mentally. I feel so hurt and ignored. I finally reach out. Where else am I supposed to find a OCD specialist??
