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.
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:
Excessive hand washing or avoiding public spaces due to a fear of germs or dirt.
Returning to check locks, gas stoves, or documents 5, 10, or 20 times just to feel "safe."
Disturbing, unwanted images of harm, violence, or taboo subjects that pop into your head and cause immense guilt.
Feeling intense distress if objects aren't lined up "perfectly" or needing to count steps/items.
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.
OCD rarely goes away on its own. We use a "Bio-Psycho-Social" model to treat the root cause.
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.
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.
We use FDA-approved, non-addictive medications (like SSRIs) to balance serotonin levels.
We offer TMS Therapy-a cutting-edge, non-invasive technology that stimulates specific parts of the brain involved in mood regulation.
Treating OCD requires specialized training beyond general psychiatry.
Dr. Saurabh Jaiswal is a leading Psychiatrist in Lucknow with an MD in Neuro-Psychiatry. He has trained at India's premier institutes including IHBAS (Delhi), NIMHANS (Bangalore), and the Central Institute of Psychiatry (Ranchi).
As a certified NLP Practitioner and Mind Architect Coach, Dr. Jaiswal goes beyond just writing prescriptions. He equips you with cognitive tools to manage your mind.
We strictly follow international treatment protocols (APA Guidelines) to ensure you receive the same quality of care available in top global clinics.
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.
