A mental health: professional such as a clinical psychologist who specializes in OCD can help. Recent approaches use Exposure therapy and ritual prevention. It's gentler than it sounds. One expert is in Center Valley PA, the Lehigh Valley, not too far from you. Peace and good health.

Get help: There is not a simple solution to overcoming ocd. Find a therapist who specializes in ocd and start working on overcoming the symptoms. You may want to consult with a psychiatrist about medication if the ocd is severe. Behavioral techniques can be helpful in combination with insight oriented work. Good luck, but it will take time, don't be discouraged.
