Grounded Minds Therapy
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
If you're constantly battling anxiety, repetitive intrusive thoughts and doubt, you're not alone. You may have found that pushing away distressing thoughts or urges only works for a short time. At Grounded Minds, we know how awful OCD can be. OCD is a vicious cycle that can be incredibly difficult to break out of, but we're here to help. OCD doesn't have to be something that you just get used to dealing with- we can help you learn how to manage uncertainty, reduce distress and limit compulsions. Our approach is gentle and relationship-focused. Together, we may work on taking the power away from intrusive thoughts and worries, stop compulsive rituals, or learn how to manage doubt. Our therapists offer Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the leading treatment for OCD. Let's work together to kick OCD out of the driver's seat. Please reach out to schedule a therapy session or free fifteen minute consultation call.

Steph Collins Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, MDiv
I support clients navigating Religious/moral OCD (Also known as Scrupulosoty). Folks with these symptoms experience intrusive thoughts, intense anxiety and pathological guilt about violating their religious, moral or ethical values. These excessive thoughts focus on the fear of being“sinful”, offending God, behaving immorally and often lead to compulsive acts like obsessive praying, confessing, doubting etc

Rebecca Goldstein, TuneinTherapy, ADHD | Trauma | Autism
Registered Social Worker, RSW, MSW, MTA, BMT, FAMI
OCD is often far more exhausting and misunderstood than many people realize. It is not just about being organized or liking things a certain way — it can involve intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviors, anxiety, mental rituals, shame, and the constant pressure of trying to find certainty, relief, or safety.
For many people, OCD can overlap with trauma, neurodivergence, nervous system dysregulation, or deeper patterns of fear and self-doubt.
My approach is compassionate, practical, and grounded in helping you better understand what may be happening beneath the surface while building awareness, reducing shame, and strengthening healthier ways of responding. Together, we work toward creating more freedom, flexibility, and self-trust rather than staying trapped in cycles that feel exhausting and hard to break.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Whether you have an official OCD diagnosis or not, intrusive thoughts can feel like a prison holding you captive in painful feelings, confusion about yourself or reality, a constant need for reassurance and/or avoidance. Together we can use Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard OCD treatment, to teach you how to help yourself when intrusive thoughts arise and reclaim a life that feels worth living.

Hailey Goldberg
Registered Social Worker, Registered Social Worker (MSW), DBT-Linehan Board of Certification, Certified Clinician™
I provide support for individuals experiencing OCD, particularly when intrusive, unwanted thoughts are creating significant distress or interfering with daily life. Many people with OCD worry that their thoughts mean something about who they are or what they might do, leading to significant fear, shame, self-doubt, and attempts to gain certainty or reassurance. In therapy, I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space to explore these experiences and better understand how OCD can become stuck in cycles of fear and compulsive responding.
Using evidence-based approaches, I help clients learn new ways of relating to intrusive thoughts so they have less power and influence over daily life. Whether your OCD involves themes related to harm, relationships, sexuality, morality, health, or other unwanted thoughts, my goal is to help you build confidence in your ability to tolerate uncertainty and live in accordance with your values rather than your fears.

Mind By Design®
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychology and Coaching Clinics
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is another mental disorder that is an improperly used term in pop media as it is usual to have routines that make us better even though it would not distress us if we could not do them. OCD on the other hand is when these routines start to impact the sufferer’s life, they inhibit them from fully functioning daily. Thus, people with OCD can feel as though their impulses and behaviours are outside of their control and are somehow unnatural.

Alessia Zita | Zita Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapy (Qualifying)
Do you often feel caught in repetitive thoughts, urges, or behaviours that are exhausting or hard to control? Many people with OCD have learned to try to manage uncertainty, fear, or distress by performing rituals, checking, or overthinking—strategies that may have once helped you feel safe but now can feel overwhelming.
These patterns are not a personal failing—they are ways your mind is trying to protect you. What matters is how you respond when these thoughts and urges arise. Together, we can explore your experiences, understand what drives them, and build strategies to help you feel more in control, grounded, and lighter over time. You experience these patterns for a reason. Let’s explore why, and what comes next.

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.

Vaughan is one of Canada's fastest-growing cities and part of the Greater Toronto Area's northern expansion, with a large Italian-Canadian community alongside growing South Asian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern populations creating a diverse and evolving therapy demand. The city's relative newness as a major population center means its private therapy infrastructure is still developing, and many residents access care in Toronto or through telehealth. Mackenzie Health's Cortellucci Vaughan Hospital — one of Canada's newest major hospitals — provides institutional resources, and the broader GTA ecosystem of therapists is accessible for those willing to travel or use online platforms. Vaughan's affluent suburban character means therapy is financially accessible for many, though stigma barriers in some cultural communities remain a consideration.
