I have these and love them. Also if you want a cheap one that's just (barely) big enough to use but tiny enough to take anywhere, this one is nice.

Have you tried mantras or prayers? Check with your therapist to see if they recommend this with your OCD fist, but reciting a mantra or prayer reliably directs your attention and your intention in a positive direction. If you're doing it properly it's not going to leave much room for other thoughts that might distress you.
It's better if the phrase is directing positive intentions to others and not just to yourself, like loving kindness. Or Om Mani Padme Hum might be even better because it's also in another language with no single translation, so you're not caught up in thinking about it, and because it's short and easy to get in a rhythm with no thinking.
If you have an affinity for Christianity I'm sure there are appropriate prayers that serve the purpose of wishing good things for those around you and yourself. Or you could make your own. But I've been told the best ones to use are in languages you don't understand, so long as it's legit.
Basically you just keep repeating the phrase aloud, paying close attention to the sound of your voice, or in your head, paying attention to your inner voice. You can also get a cheap, discrete mala to wear on your wrist to manipulate for every recitation. Any way that you can increase your focus helps.
If you're interested in this it doesn't have to be something you do all the time. It could just be a "last defense" if you're thoughts are really running away from you and you start to worry.
