My name is Jessica Harrison. I am a doctoral prepared, dual-certified Family and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.
I have an extensive medical background that includes primary care, urgent care, internal medicine and hospital medicine. My psychiatric experience includes substance abuse, eating disorders, crisis stabilization, and outpatient services caring for individuals with depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, women's mental health, and bipolar disorder II.

Inspired by a deep desire to make a difference in people’s lives, I pursued my education in health care. This journey has been a blessing and a privilege, allowing me to work in health care and provide care for the people I love and serve.
My family and I have built a home filled with love and laughter. They bring joy and inspiration to my life every day. I'm excited to support my clients in bringing that same love and joy and laughter back into their own lives.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an OCD Therapist in Augusta, GA
Finding OCD therapists in Augusta starts with looking for a therapist trained in obsessive-compulsive disorder care. OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive checking, contamination concerns, repeated reassurance seeking, or mental rituals. Exposure and response prevention, often called ERP, is a common therapy approach for OCD, and not all therapists are trained in it. As you compare options, look for therapists who list OCD, ERP, or cognitive behavioral therapy for OCD in their bios.
Augusta offers a range of mental health care options, and virtual appointments can expand your search beyond nearby offices while still keeping care accessible. Some people prefer in-person sessions close to home, work, or school, while others choose virtual care for scheduling flexibility. When reviewing OCD therapists, pay attention to whether they are accepting new patients, offer appointment times that fit your calendar, and describe specific OCD experience. A therapist who lists OCD as a focus area may differ from one who clearly describes ERP training or structured OCD support.
Therapy in Augusta can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before you book. Headway makes it easier to compare OCD therapists, view estimated out-of-pocket costs after your plan is verified, read detailed bios, and book directly when you are ready.
