How can religious OCD be treated?

I have religious OCD and certain intrusive unwanted pops up in my mind out of nowhere no matter what i am doing or where i am. I don't want these thoughts to come and have done everything to suppress these disrespectful explicit unwanted disturbing thoughts. These intrusive negative disrespectful thoughts come in my mind all the time, every minute and it makes me feel guilty, mentally disturbed and gives me immense anxiety attacks everyday as i am doing wrong things in the thoughts. My guilt is eating me everyday. It's been almost one year i am suffering from this religious OCD. How can I treat my mental condition?
