Is Your Brain "Stuck" on Repeat?

We all double-check a locked door occasionally. But for people with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), the brain gets stuck in a loop of fear and repetition that feels impossible to stop.


Whether you are a student in Aliganj losing hours to perfectionism, or a professional in Hazratganj plagued by fears of contamination, OCD is not a personality quirk-it is a treatable neuro-biological condition.


Dr. Saurabh Jaiswal combines the global gold standard for OCD-Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)-with safe medical management to help you regain control of your life.

It's Not Just About Being "Tidy."

Many people think OCD is just about cleaning. In reality, it is often a silent mental battle. If you are looking for an OCD specialist, check if you experience these symptoms of OCD:

Contamination Fear

Excessive hand washing or avoiding public spaces due to a fear of germs or dirt.

Compulsive Checking

Returning to check locks, gas stoves, or documents 5, 10, or 20 times just to feel "safe."

Intrusive Thoughts

Disturbing, unwanted images of harm, violence, or taboo subjects that pop into your head and cause immense guilt.

Symmetry & Ordering

Feeling intense distress if objects aren't lined up "perfectly" or needing to count steps/items.

"Pure O" (Invisible Compulsions)

You may not show physical signs in Pure O OCD, but you perform mental rituals (like praying or repeating phrases) to neutralize bad thoughts.

If these rituals take up more than 1 hour a day or cause significant distress, it is time to seek clinical OCD treatment.

How We Treat OCD: A Dual Approach

OCD rarely goes away on its own. We use a "Bio-Psycho-Social" model to treat the root cause.

1. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) Therapy

This is the most effective therapy for OCD worldwide. Instead of avoiding your fears, we help you face them in a controlled, safe way without doing the compulsive ritual.

Over time, your brain learns that the anxiety goes away on its own, breaking the loop.

2. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

While ERP focuses on changing your actions, CBT focuses on changing your thoughts.

Dr. Jaiswal uses CBT to help you identify these errors in thinking and teaches you Cognitive Restructuring.

3. Medication Management (SSRIs)

We use FDA-approved, non-addictive medications (like SSRIs) to balance serotonin levels.

4. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)

We offer TMS Therapy-a cutting-edge, non-invasive technology that stimulates specific parts of the brain involved in mood regulation.

Common Questions About OCD Treatment

A: While there is no "magic cure," OCD is highly manageable. With the right combination of therapy and medication, most patients achieve "remission," where symptoms are so mild they no longer disrupt daily life.

A: Not always. Mild cases often respond well to CBT and ERP therapy alone. However, for moderate to severe cases, medication helps stabilize the brain's chemistry, making therapy much more effective.

A: No. OCD is a neuro-biological disorder. It is not a "weakness" or just "liking things clean." It involves specific brain circuits that get stuck in a "danger signal" loop.
