Psychologist, RPsych
Living with OCD can make you feel like a hostage in your own mind. When distressing, intrusive thoughts trigger overwhelming anxiety, and repetitive compulsions or mental checks feel like the only way to find safety, daily life becomes an exhausting loop of constant vigilance. You shouldn't have to spend your days performing rituals just to get a moment of peace, nor should intrusive thoughts make you question who you are.
At Viewpoint Psychological Services in Calgary, our therapists offer specialized, evidence-based care to help you disarm OCD and step out of the doubt trap. Using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) with a central focus on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard in OCD treatment—we partner with you to safely break the cycle of compulsions and rebuild your trust in yourself.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Interrupt the Compulsive Cycle: Master practical ERP skills to tolerate uncertainty and resist compulsions, starving OCD of the control it holds over your daily life.
- Neutralize Intrusive Thoughts: Disarm shocking or distressing obsessions with compassion, learning to see them for what they are—brain noise that has no bearing on your character or values.
- Reclaim Your Time & Freedom: Dramatically reduce the time and energy spent on rituals so you can direct your focus back to your relationships, career, and passions.
You don't have to keep giving in to OCD's demands. Let’s partner together to help you quiet the alarm system, take back control, and live on your own terms.

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.
