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.

Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space for individuals living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I understand that OCD can feel overwhelming, intrusive, and isolating, and believe that healing begins with compassion, understanding, and practical strategies.
Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)—including exposure and response prevention techniques when appropriate—and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), I work collaboratively with clients to identify triggers, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and develop tools to manage obsessions and compulsions. My approach emphasizes empowerment, patience, and building confidence in one’s ability to cope.
I provide a supportive environment where clients can reclaim control, reduce anxiety, and cultivate a balanced, fulfilling life—one intentional step at a time.

Marjan Emami
Counsellor/Therapist, MD, RTC #3608, MPCC-Provisional #4797, ACTA #3122
OCD is a way of coping with deep anxiety and a need for control in a world that has felt unsafe. These patterns often develop early, when a sense of safety or emotional connection was missing, leading the mind to create order as a way to manage overwhelming internal experiences. In my work, we explore the underlying roots of these patterns with curiosity and compassion, rather than judgment.

Michelle Labine
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Counselling Therapist, AASECT Certified Sex Therapist
OCD is more than intrusive thoughts and visible compulsions. It can also show up in relationships through persistent doubt, reassurance-seeking, overanalyzing, rumination, and a need for certainty about feelings, decisions, or the relationship itself. These patterns can be exhausting and often create more anxiety rather than relief. Together, we can develop a better understanding of OCD, reduce the grip of obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours, and build greater confidence in tolerating uncertainty while strengthening your relationship with yourself and others.

Dr. Matthew Clyde
Psychologist, PhD
OCD goes far beyond a desire for cleanliness; it is a cycle of intrusive, distressing thoughts (obsessions) and the repetitive behaviors (compulsions) used to neutralize them. This cycle can feel like a mental prison that consumes hours of your day. Using evidence-based approaches, we work to break the "feedback loop" of OCD, helping you learn to tolerate uncertainty and reclaim your time and mental energy from these intrusive patterns.

Halifax is Atlantic Canada's largest city and a hub for universities, the military, and ocean-tech industries, creating a therapy community serving students, naval personnel, and knowledge workers navigating the pressures of high-achieving careers in a smaller city. Dalhousie University and Canadian Forces Base Halifax generate distinct demand for therapists who specialize in academic stress, military trauma, and the particular challenges of military family life. Nova Scotia Health provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving the South End, Bedford, and Dartmouth. Halifax's relatively small size means specialist therapist availability can be limited in some areas, and telehealth has become especially important for accessing care across Atlantic Canada.
