For evidence-based OCD and anxiety treatment on Coronado Island, Dr. William Taboas, Ph.D. brings published research credentials from Fordham University and San Diego State University's Center for Understanding and Treating Anxiety to the 1339 Orange Avenue practice. California license PSY 32182 covers his specialization in Exposure and Response Prevention for obsessive-compulsive disorder, a protocol he pairs with CBT, ACT, and DBT depending on whether the presenting case involves social phobia, panic disorder, generalized anxiety, or specific phobias — treatment modalities also offered in a military-family context at CrownTown Counseling on Orange Avenue. A Puerto Rico native, he conducts sessions in both English and Spanish, addressing a gap for bilingual psychological care within the 92118 ZIP. His peer-reviewed publications on neurophysiological markers for anxiety and overvalued ideation in adolescent OCD have been presented at ABCT, ADAA, and IOCDF national conferences, grounding his clinical work in active research rather than static textbook models. Mindfulness-based cognitive strategies form a regular component of his relapse-prevention plans, complementing the structured breathwork and movement programming at Island Yoga Coronado for clients integrating somatic regulation into their recovery. Highest-tier protocols involve multi-session ERP hierarchies targeting contamination, harm, and symmetry obsessions with in-vivo and imaginal exposure sequences calibrated to Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale benchmarks.
