Counselling and Psychotherapy Yarraville
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, BEd, BA, Dip T, Dip Counselling, Dip Hypnotherapy
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a neurobiological condition rather than a psychological or emotional condition. It is part of the anxiety family but it requires very specific interventions. Based on the work of Drs Jeffrey Schwartz and Rebecca Gladding, I offer metacognitive behaviour therapy which allows the person with OCD to see themselves as the thinker of the thoughts that are disturbing them. And then to change those thoughts.

Clair Ramsden
Counsellor/Therapist, (Dip.Couns)
Being able to live with OCD can be very challenging, and it's not always easy to cope with. As a psychotherapist, I'm dedicated to helping individuals with this condition manage their symptoms. Through a combination of evidence-based treatments and psychological therapy, I'll help them feel more comfortable and control their thoughts and behaviours.

Psychologist, Masters in Clinical Psychology, Ph.D.
OCD is one of the more brain-based or neurobiological of all the anxiety conditions. People get notoriously stuck in their fears and the rules around staying responsible, morally correct and safe. No matter how stuck you are, there are known treatments that can work and we have clinicians at this practice who can help.
