Ben Johnides, Ph.D.

Anxiety and OCD Specialist

Hi, I’m Dr. Ben

Licensed Clinical Psychologist, Ph.D.

Living with anxiety and OCD can make it feel like the world is closing in around you. It can be very frustrating and exhausting to get through each day only to have to start all over again the next morning. It can leave you feeling lonely, isolated, and hopeless. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Exposure and Response Prevention can help you take back control and begin to loosen the grip that anxiety and OCD have over your life. I offer these evidence-based treatments to my clients in Pasadena, CA as well as to those attending treatment by Zoom in CA, NY, and FL. Beginning therapy can be difficult, but learning how to manage anxiety and OCD can open up your world and help you take back your time and engage in opportunities that otherwise were not available to you when you were in the throes of anxiety and OCD. Reach out for a free 10-15 minute consultation if you'd like to find out whether we'd be a good fit to work together.
