OCD
Melissa Huang
Registered Psychotherapist, (Qualifying), MA
OCD is exhausting in a way few people understand: the intrusive thoughts you'd never act on, the rituals that promise relief but demand more each time, the shame of a mind that won't let go. None of it reflects who you are. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to understand how OCD operates, separate yourself from its demands, and gradually reclaim the time and peace it's taken. The goal isn't just to quiet the thoughts, it's to genuinely understand yourself, change your relationship with uncertainty, and build a life led by your values instead of your fears. Together we'll work toward feeling more free, more present, and more equipped to live on your own terms.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
OCD is not about being particular or liking things clean. It's a cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsions that can quietly take over enormous amounts of time, energy, and quality of life. I work with clients using evidence-based approaches, with room for the shame and exhaustion that tend to travel alongside it. The intrusive thoughts don't make you a bad person. That's usually worth saying early.

OCD
Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting and relentless, often pulling you into cycles of intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours that are hard to break. You might experience distressing thoughts, images, or urges, alongside a strong need to perform certain actions or mental rituals to reduce anxiety. Even when you recognize that these patterns don’t make logical sense, they can still feel incredibly real and difficult to resist.
In our work together, we’ll approach OCD with both understanding and structure—recognizing how these patterns have developed while also working toward meaningful change. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused lens, we’ll support your nervous system while gently building your capacity to face feared thoughts and situations without relying on compulsions. This process is collaborative and gradual in a way that feels manageable and supportive.
I draw from approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), ACT, IFS, Mindfulness-Based CBT, EMDR, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. ERP is a highly effective, evidence-based approach for OCD, helping you reduce compulsions and build tolerance for uncertainty over time. Together, we’ll develop practical tools while also supporting deeper healing.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, you may feel trapped in cycles of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours. The thoughts can feel unwanted and distressing, often centred around fear, responsibility, harm, contamination, or doubt. The compulsions may temporarily reduce anxiety, yet the relief rarely lasts, and the cycle begins again. Over time, this can feel exhausting and isolating.
At Selah Counselling, we approach OCD with compassion and clinical clarity. We understand that OCD is not about preference or personality. It is a pattern rooted in anxiety and nervous system activation. Together, we work to reduce the power of intrusive thoughts, build tolerance for uncertainty, and gently interrupt compulsive behaviours through evidence-based strategies. Our goal is to help you regain freedom, strengthen regulation, and live with greater confidence rather than being driven by fear or rituals.

Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
OCD is an incredibly isolating experience that often carries a heavy weight of shame and self-judgment. I want you to know right away that this is not your fault, and no one would ever choose to be stuck in a relentless cycle of intrusive thoughts and exhausting rituals just to feel briefly safe. I am deeply passionate about helping you break out of this mental prison. Using a direct, compassionate, and evidence-based approach, a core part of our work will involve Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Step-by-step, we will practice becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable. By integrating mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we will collaboratively face your fears without surrendering to the compulsions. We aren't trying to simply ignore the thoughts, we are working to strip away their power so you can finally experience true freedom.

Mark Giesbrecht, MA, CCC, RCC - Psychotherapist
Counsellor/Therapist, MA, CT, CCC, RCC
OCD is actually your way of coping with anxiety. You might not have knowingly chosen to become obsessive with your thoughts and compulsive in your actions. But your body is convinced doing the excessive acts will somehow make you less stressed. Unfortunately it doesn't work that way. Let me teach you new ways to cope with anxiety so that you can start changing how much time and energy your thoughts and behaviours are robbing from you.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
The counting, checking, arranging, and repeating aren't the problem—they're your mind's desperate attempt to manage overwhelming anxiety and find control. I understand that even starting therapy might trigger your symptoms, so we'll build trust and safety first, letting your nervous system settle before pushing deeper. Once comfort is established, we'll explore what's really driving the compulsions: the underlying trauma, the unbearable uncertainty, the fear your rituals are trying to neutralize. You'll learn healthier ways to manage anxiety, challenge the obsessive thoughts without judgment, and gradually reduce the behaviors that have taken over your life. Freedom from OCD's grip is possible through understanding what fuels it.

Daniel Klassen
Psychologist, Provisional, (P7619) with CAP in Alberta & Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC 19147) with BCACC, for elsewhere in Canada
Living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be profoundly distressing. It involves persistent, intrusive thoughts—often unwanted and anxiety-inducing—that drive individuals to perform repetitive behaviors or mental rituals in an attempt to relieve the discomfort. While these compulsions may offer temporary relief, they ultimately reinforce a cycle of obsessive thinking and compulsive action, deepening the distress over time.
The fear behind OCD can feel overwhelming, even paralyzing—anchored in the belief that if these rituals aren’t completed, something terrible might happen. What makes it even more challenging is that individuals with OCD are often aware that their thoughts and behaviors are irrational or excessive, yet still feel powerless to stop them. This internal conflict can lead to intense emotional exhaustion and a diminished sense of control.
Therapeutic approaches such as Narrative Therapy (NT) can help individuals explore and reframe their experiences, while mindfulness practices and targeted lifestyle changes support the management of anxiety and obsessive thinking. Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy may also be used to uncover and heal the deeper emotional wounds or internal conflicts that give rise to compulsive patterns.
Every person’s experience with OCD is unique, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution. However, with an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to the individual, it is possible to significantly reduce—and in some cases, eliminate—symptoms, empowering individuals to reclaim a sense of peace, agency, and stability in their lives.

Kristen Bailey Counselling
Counsellor/Therapist, Masters of Arts Counselling Psychology
OCD is sadly missed for alot of clients, especially if you have more internal compulsion and obsession ( such as rumination, checking, analyzing etc). I have seen hpow a great deal of clients have struggled with this for years and their mental compulsions take up a lot of time and energy. For this I like to support people with having a different relationship with their thoughts, recognising when they are doing compulsions that may fly under the radar and addressing the underlying anxiety.

OCD
Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
OCD can be debilitating due to having unwanted, recurring thoughts that cause people to engage in frequent, repetitive behaviours in order to relieve anxiety. People with OCD often feel overwhelmed due to needing things a certain way with leaving little to no room for flexibility. Rigidity takes over, which can create feelings of sadness and helplessness. The therapy models that I use for OCD are primarily Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The CBT model involves challenging unwanted thoughts that may be exacerbating the OCD. Once clients identify the thoughts that are linked to the unwanted behaviours, they learn to have more choice over how they would like to respond to those thoughts. Gaining control over the unwanted thoughts is a powerful step in the healing process, as clients feel empowered to make independent choices that are in line with their values. Values-oriented work is largely derived from the ACT model. As we explore values, clients gain a deep understanding of the type of life they would like to live. They explore what makes life rich and meaningful and what changes need to happen in order to reach their full potential.
