You’ve Been Surviving &
Managing Symptoms Long Enough.

Now It’s Time to Finally Break the Loop.

If you’re here, it’s not by accident, it’s because something in you is done — 

You’re done with managing your symptoms

You’re done with spiraling and fighting with your thoughts

You’re done with fear and anxiety always secretly calling the shots

You’re done shifting from quick fix to quick fix 

You’re done with just getting by...

You’ve most likely tried a lot by this point: therapy, meditation/mindfulness, supplements, medication… But deep down, the same loop keeps running:

  • Intrusive thoughts hijack your peace
  • Mental compulsions and rituals take up all your time and energy
  • You seek relief, reassurance, and answers that never seem to stick
  • And even on the good days… it still feels like a fight

Here’s the truth: You’re not broken. You’re not hopeless.

You’re stuck in a loop you haven’t been shown how to break out — yet.

That’s what Taking Back Control was built to help you do.

Why Most Approaches
Don’t Work

Most people see their intrusive thoughts and anxious feelings as the problem they are trying to solve, so any intervention they try is done with the intent of eliminating their thoughts and feelings.

Many interventions falsely confirm that belief and center the work around eliminating thoughts and feelings as well.

But your thoughts and feelings aren’t the real problem.

The real problem is your resistance to your thoughts and feelings forms a self-perpetuating OCD & Anxiety loop.

The OCD & Anxiety Loop is fueled by:
  • A dysregulated nervous system
  • Physical and Mental safety behaviors that reinforce fear
  • Belief systems built on uncertainty, doubt, and distrust

Without addressing the loop itself, you’ll stay trapped in achieving periods of temporary relief — but never true freedom.

That’s why inside TBC, we focus on dissolving the loop from from the inside out.

At the core of that process is something called the Triple-A Response®.

Apply for Taking Back Control

The Triple-A Response®

 

This is the foundation of the Taking Back Control process — a 3-step, solution-focused response that helps rewires how your brain and nervous system processes intrusive thoughts and anxious feelings.

Here’s what it helps you do:

  • Handle intrusive thoughts correctly without spiraling or engaging in mental compulsions
  • Respond to fear correctly in a way that leads to release — not resistance
  • Regulate your nervous system so you start living from a place of trust
  • Reprogram belief systems that support your true, trusting self

When you apply the Triple-A Response® consistently, your brain learns what’s actually safe. And that’s when the loop starts to break down — for good.

This method has helped thousands reclaim peace, presence, and power — and it’s the exact foundation you are going to master, step by step, inside Taking Back Control.

Apply for Taking Back Control

Why This Isn’t Like
Other Approaches

Most programs teach you how to manage and cope with anxiety.
We teach you how to break the loop that you are stuck in.

Taking Back Control helps you:

  • Successfully rewire your brain’s safety response
  • Start building unshakable trust in yourself
  • Implement a solution-focused system

Other approaches tell you to:

  • Analyze your thoughts and try to understand them
  • Avoid thoughts that make you anxious
  • Work at fear from a theme or external place
  • Successfully rewire your brain’s safety response
  • Start building unshakable trust in yourself
  • Implement a solution-focused system
  • Analyze your thoughts and try to understand them
  • Avoid thoughts that make you anxious
  • Work at fear from a theme or external place

If you’ve tried everything and nothing’s worked long-term — this is for you.

Meet Your Guide

Hi, I'm Matt Codde LCSW

Years ago, I found myself trapped in the relentless cycle of OCD and anxiety. Despite seeking help from multiple therapists, I struggled to find a path that led to lasting relief. It wasn't until I shifted my focus from fighting my thoughts to understanding and responding to them differently that I began to experience true healing

This journey led me to develop the Triple-A Response®, a practical framework designed to help individuals break free from the OCD & Anxiety Loop. It's the culmination of my personal experiences and extensive research, aimed at providing a clear, actionable path to recovery.

Today, as a professional coach, author, and educator, my mission is to empower others to take back control of their lives using this method. Through the Taking Back Control program, I guide individuals step-by-step, offering the tools, support, and community needed to foster lasting change.

If you're ready to embark on a journey toward clarity, calm, and confidence, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

"I cannot express how much the Taking Back Control program has helped me."

K. H. ★ 

"I bounced around from different therapists and healing approaches without any success and I was left with even more anxiety and confusion. Once I began the TBC program I was filled with hope, as it felt like Matt was reading my mind. I decided to focus entirely on his teachings and tools as if it were my job...There is such a sense of peace knowing that I am not alone and that anxiety is not a life sentence. Thank you, thank you!"

"As soon as I signed up, Matt was with me from the first step, which gave a sense of comfort."

J. H. ★ 

"The way the course unfolds couldn't be better, and gradually introduces you to the concepts, to understanding OCD and anxiety, and finally, taking steps to recovery. Nothing ever felt a step too far away. Coming from where I was in early 2019 to starting recruit training with the Marines, I owe Matt (and MYSELF) a great deal of gratitude and pride, although I accept my journey of recovery is not yet finished, I can absolutely say I am now in a state of mind to live life on my terms and to its fullest value. Cheers to Matt, myself and Restored Minds!"

"I enthusiastically recommend him to anyone struggling with OCD & Anxiety."

Tyler F. ★ 

"I struggled with OCD & Anxiety for decades and I was very fortunate to connect with Matt. This program was very helpful to me as well as my family. He was very knowledgeable and passionate, drawing on a breadth of personal experience. I enthusiastically recommend him to anyone struggling with OCD & Anxiety. The focus here is on building tools, facing fears, putting in the hard work, and essentially becoming your own therapist. I feel more equipped than ever before to navigate life's challenges, and I want to thank Matt for that new found confidence."

"I’m still in disbelief how quickly this program changed our lives for the better."

Sam ★ 

"It’s hard to overstate how much Taking Back Control helped our family get through a difficult time. From a husband’s perspective, I was in a constant and desperate search for the right things to do or say that might ease the pain my wife was feeling through her battle with OCD, anxiety, and depression. I never gave up hope even in the darkest times but I began to accept that there was not going to be any quick fix... My wife was willing to open her mind and work at it but Matt’s videos resonated immediately. From day 1 her understanding of how to deal with the anxiety and outlook on life changed dramatically. We both learned and continue to realize how these are tools to live a healthier and happier life. I will be forever grateful to Matt and Restored Minds."

“I highly recommend this program for individuals with OCD & Anxiety."

Rachel Factor LCSW ★ 

“I highly recommend this program for individuals with OCD & Anxiety. Matthew is truly gifted in his ability to give over the techniques and tools for the treatment and management of OCD & Anxiety with extreme clarity, understanding, and encouragement for individuals who are struggling. OCD & Anxiety help and training has never been more accessible. No more excuses. Enrolling in this program is truly an investment in oneself!”

"You have done a great service to people with OCD and Anxiety."

Joey H. ★ 

"Hey Matt, Your techniques have really helped me, I can't thank you enough. Of course there are still moments when OCD tries to catch me, but I am able to see it clearly and follow the Triple-A Response. I feel so much better than just a few months ago. Thank you for creating the program and giving me the tools. You have done a great service to people with OCD and Anxiety."

"The Restored Minds program has given me my life back and I know in my heart I am headed for greater."

K. H. ★ 

"I can't express the gratitude I have for Matt and the Restored Minds program. I've spent a lot of money and time with other therapists who were not able to help me accurately address my Anxiety & OCD. The Restored Minds program is simple to follow and makes the path to recovery so attainable. I suffered from intrusive thoughts, panic attacks and insomnia. I saw my world getting smaller and smaller and I was in a dark place. The Restored Minds program has given me my life back and I know in my heart I am headed for greater. I believe in this program so much that I've shared it with a few family members and friends who have also gained an understanding of their anxiety in a short amount of time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

"Restored Minds is the best thing I’ve ever done for my mental health."

Gayla ★ 

“Restored Minds is the best thing I’ve ever done for my mental health. I can’t say enough good things about how it helped me find myself again. I discovered Restored Minds at a time when my thoughts were constantly racing. My mind felt like it was on overdrive, filled with unwanted thoughts that wouldn’t stop. I needed help—but I didn’t want medication. Restored Minds taught me how to calm my thoughts and connected me with a community of people facing similar challenges. Through group sessions, I’ve learned so much just by listening and participating. I know I’ll carry these lessons with me for life, using the “Taking Back Control” process Restored Minds teaches. It was money well spent!”

If you’ve explored OCD and anxiety treatment options, you already know:

  • Most 3-week intensives range from $20,000–$40,000

Here’s what you’re saying yes to:
