Top 18 OCD specialists, ranked by OLEE score
Scores are out of 100 and based only on public evidence of OCD expertise: how clearly a provider describes exposure and response prevention (ERP), how central OCD is to their practice, specialized training and affiliations, and credentials. No one pays to be listed or ranked. How we score.
Most therapists who list OCD were never trained in the treatment that works. Here’s how to find one who was.

Ask before you book
“Do you use exposure and response prevention, and where were you trained in it?” and “How many of your current clients have OCD?” A real specialist answers clearly and specifically.
Who are the best LGBTQ+ affirming OCD therapists in Georgia?

Why does an LGBTQ+ affirming OCD therapist matter?
People in the LGBTQ+ community deserve care that doesn’t pathologize their identity. For OCD themes involving sexual orientation or gender, an affirming specialist treats the doubt and compulsions with ERP rather than trying to resolve the question itself.
Can OCD make me doubt my sexual orientation?
Yes. Sexual orientation OCD causes unwanted, distressing doubts about orientation and compulsive checking for certainty. It is treatable with ERP. See our guide to sexual OCD for more.
What should I look for in an OCD therapist?
Look for someone who specifically uses exposure and response prevention (ERP) and for whom OCD is a large part of their caseload. Specialized training such as the IOCDF Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI) is a strong signal. Ask how many of their current clients have OCD.
OLEE scores measure publicly verifiable signals of OCD expertise, not treatment outcomes. Always confirm licensure, availability and fit directly with a provider. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 (US).
