Homecoming

OCD & Anxiety Treatment of Houston (OATH) opening January 2020!

Treatment progress is not a linear path, nor has my journey been to getting back home. Hi, my name is Saharah Shrout. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, specializing in treating OCD and Anxiety disorders. I have over 16 years of experience in working in the field and was trained at the Houston OCD Program and The Menninger Clinic OCD program. After 10+ years of helping run and direct the Houston OCD Program, I am branching out into private practice. 

I have a passion for working with clients with OCD and anxiety disorders. My approach is short-term, solution focused utilizing Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with an emphasis on Exposure/Response Prevention treatment, which is the gold standard treatment for treating OCD and anxiety disorders. I love collaborating with my clients in creating unique and creative ideas on how to reduce the impact of OCD and anxiety in their world. I strive to help increase each client’s personal choice and ability to make values-based decisions, putting them back into the driver’s seat, as opposed to just a passenger along for the ride. 

Over the years, collaboration and building referrals locally and nationally has been a keystone feature of my work.  It’s often pained me knowing that my home community had little to no specialty services for OCD and anxiety, which is why I am excited to return to the area to provide specialty services to this community.
