Aaron Kapin
Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, SEP, LMT
If you have diagnosed obsessive compulsive disorder that's actively disrupting your life, make sure you find a specialist to work with.
If you have a specialist, or your tendencies are more mild (i.e. not an active threat to your health and well-being), let's talk. Somatic Experiencing has the potential to help you track with the physical aspect of a compulsion, that is, instead of thinking about what the urge is, you feel what the urge feels like.
It's hard to believe it till you experience it, but once you can find the physical aspect of a compulsion and learn to track it with some curiosity, it has the potential to change more quickly than addressing the specifics of the compulsion itself.
Again, this isn't a treatment for an OCD diagnosis, but it can be a great supplement to treatment, helping you feel safer and more settled in your body as you navigate this.

Amelia Traer
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying), BA, PsiChi
What if your brain won’t let you leave a thought alone, no matter how much reassurance you seek? OCD can make everyday life feel exhausting, with intrusive thoughts, unwanted images, doubts, and compulsions taking up far more space than you want them to. Amelia offers a compassionate, non-judgmental space to understand OCD and work toward feeling less controlled by it. You don’t have to be ashamed of your thoughts or figure them out alone.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: CBT-informed support with referral for specialized ERP when indicated.
I help clients understand the relationship between intrusive thoughts, anxiety, avoidance, and compulsive behaviours. Because Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a specialized evidence-based treatment for OCD, I would refer or collaborate with an appropriately trained clinician when ERP is required
