New Year, New Me: How to Make Your Resolutions Stick
"I came to Bio Behavioral after years of being diagnosed from having neuroses to schizophrenia. It was there that I found people who understood me and helped me. They interviewed me at length and knew I had OCD. A care plan was implemented and they were with them every step of my journey. Everyone there on the team had studied OCD and knew how to diagnose and treat. I can never thank Bio Behavioral enough”
"I’d wrestled with swings of mood and feelings of alienation and loneliness my entire life. By the time I was the mother of three young girls I realized I was in need of help with my mental health.
I spent approximately 20-25 years, on and off, mostly on, bouncing from one provider to another, seeking treatment for depression and anxiety.
One day, during a couple years break from treatment, I listened to a program on OCD. The speakers were describing me and my family life. I tracked down the participants in the program. I was referred to Dr. Nez.
Dr. Nez for the first time in my life, explained to me in a very clear and understandable way, what I was dealing with. She taught me how to re-frame my perceptions and how to improve or modify my responses.
She has helped me and members of my family. She saved my husband’s and my marriage."
Forever grateful,
"As with many people with OCD, I did not seek treatment for several years after my symptoms began. Being in the healthcare profession when I sought treatment, I wanted to work with a therapist who had both extensive clinical and academic credentials, and with a practice that offered a myriad of treatment options.
After extensive research, I began treatment at the Biobehavioral Institute (BBI) under the direction of their Director, Dr. Fugen Neziroglu, who is a world renowned expert in treating OCD. BBI has extensive experience, and resources to treat OCD, and offers several treatment options including individual treatment sessions, and intensive therapy sessions which are available in their office, or the patient’s home.
Despite having significant limitations, and sometimes debilitating symptoms from my OCD, I credit my treatment at, and support from BBI with allowing me to continue to work in a very stressful career, and make extensive improvements in my personal life.
I would recommend anyone seeking treatment for OCD to reach out to BBI."
