This book by Hazrat Maulan Yunus Patel Saheb (rahmatullah alayh) provides guidance for such problems:

Combating the Whisperings of Shaytaan

You should also consult your GP. OCD is a well understood disorder and can be effectively treated using a combination of medication (SSRIs) and therapy (CBT).

Insha Allah if you follow the advice in the book and seek medical treatment then your situation will improve. If you do one but not the other then you will limit your chances of getting better.

Think of it this way, what would you do if you had cancer? Would you seek medical treatment or not? The answer is that you would and this is no different. Make du'a to Allah (swt) but also seek a cure through the means Allah (swt) has provided. It is sunnah to do so, as Allah (swt) has provided a cure for every ailment whether we know it or not.
