I assist clients with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder through a combination of Exposure and Response Therapy (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the most up to date neuroscientific information to help you build new pathways in the brain, reducing compulsions, finding adaptive healthy ways to cope with fear, and bringing you a new sense of control and hope. As a Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying) and Recreation Therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where my clients are empowered with knowledge that assists in building confidence and creating change. Group therapy options are available for OCD.
Living with OCD can be incredibly distressing, affecting not only one's thoughts and behaviors but also their overall quality of life. As a dedicated psychotherapist, I specialize in providing effective support and guidance to individuals struggling with OCD. With a deep understanding of the complexities of this disorder, I offer evidence-based therapies tailored to each person's unique needs. Through a collaborative and compassionate approach, I work with clients to identify and challenge their obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Together, we develop personalized strategies to manage anxiety, restore a sense of control, and improve daily functioning. By fostering a non-judgmental and empathetic therapeutic environment, my goal is to empower individuals with the tools and techniques necessary to break free from OCD's grip and achieve a life full of freedom and fulfillment. You don't have to face OCD alone – let us work together towards a brighter future.

OCD is actually a coping mechanism and a result of self doubt and perfectionism. Through integrated modalities and psychoeducation on Imposter Syndrome, I will teach you how to strive for excellence and improve self-acceptance.

Obsessive thinking and ruminating are one response to anxiety and easily takes over when we feel, "if I just think harder about this problem, I will be able to solve it." Unfortunately, the opposite is often true. And, the subject we are obsessing about or have developed compulsions to deal with, is rarely the real issue. I would be pleased to work with you to help you reframe any "thinking errors", and build on your experiences of resilience in a solution-focused way to take constructive action. I would also be honoured to work with you to help you mindfully ground yourself in you body when and therefore stay present, where peace and relief can often be found.
