Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, I specialize in providing compassionate support and effective therapy for individuals struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Through personalized treatment plans tailored to each client's unique needs, I help individuals regain control over their thoughts and behaviors, leading to a happier and more fulfilling life.
My approach to OCD therapy integrates evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). By working collaboratively with clients, I assist them in challenging their obsessive thoughts and reducing compulsive behaviors, ultimately breaking the cycle of OCD.
I provide a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore their OCD symptoms without judgment. Together, we develop practical strategies to manage anxiety, overcome triggers, and improve daily functioning. My goal is to empower clients to live fully and confidently, free from the constraints of OCD.
If you or someone you care about is struggling with OCD, I am here to help. Contact me today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards recovery.

Jane Wiltsie
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, CYW
We will collaborate on the best treatment plan for you. I typically use a less traditional approach to CBT, in place of having you fill out a chart, I will ask you the questions. We can come up with exposure therapy that suits you.

Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) reveals a complex interplay between intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviours, and past relational experiences. Originating from the structure of attachment ties, OCD may appear as a coping strategy to reduce stress and restore control when faced with imagined dangers. Trauma, whether explicit or implicit, can exacerbate these symptoms, deepening the sense of distress and amplifying the need for ritualistic behaviours. Therapy becomes a sanctuary for exploration, providing a safe space to unpack the underlying attachment dynamics and process the echoes of past traumas. By fostering self-compassion and addressing the root causes of distress, individuals can begin to untangle the knots of OCD, reclaiming agency over their thoughts and behaviours, and forging a path towards healing and resilience.
