Claire Benade
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
OCD can have an impact on several areas of our daily lives. I will work with you on strategies for coping as well as looking at the larger family dynamics (if relevant) to ensure the best support for you during these difficult times. I will help support you as we work through the thoughts and feelings you are having. Focusing on therapeutic relationship and building trust allows me to help support you while using a solution-focused lens.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is an anxiety disorder that left untreated grows to consume your energy and your time, affecting your relationships. OCD responds well to consistent treatment. I use CBT, Exposure and Response Prevention, and EMDR therapy approaches to treat it.

Megan Hanrahan
Psychologist, M.C., Registered Psychologist
OCD is a complex disorder that is often misconstrued in our popular culture. It encompasses a lot more than just orderliness and compulsive handwashing. Individuals with this disorder experience distressing obsessions and/or compulsions that are usually categorized thematically. These themes include (but are not limited to) fear of contamination, fear of acting aggressively, fear of something terrible happening or fear of becoming ill. OCD can be all-encompassing and can make it hard to get through the day. In our work together, we’ll explore how OCD shows up for you, what it tries to tell you, and how to tackle it head-on.

Psychologist, M.A., R. Psych
OCD is an anxiety disorder that dominate the mind with obsessive thoughts and is often followed by compulsive behaviors. By challenging faulty thought process and adjusting behavioural patterns we can often reduce the intensity of the anxiety that presents when the stimuli that triggers the anxiety presents.
