Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Living with OCD can be exhausting, leaving you caught in cycles of unwanted thoughts, anxiety, and repetitive behaviours or mental rituals that feel difficult to control. Together, we'll explore how OCD is affecting your daily life, develop practical strategies to manage intrusive thoughts and compulsions, and help you respond to anxiety in healthier, more effective ways. My goal is to help you regain confidence, reduce the impact OCD has on your life, and find greater freedom from its grip.

Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
OCD is exhausting in a way few people understand: the intrusive thoughts you'd never act on, the rituals that promise relief but demand more each time, the shame of a mind that won't let go. None of it reflects who you are. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to understand how OCD operates, separate yourself from its demands, and gradually reclaim the time and peace it's taken. The goal isn't just to quiet the thoughts, it's to genuinely understand yourself, change your relationship with uncertainty, and build a life led by your values instead of your fears. Together we'll work toward feeling more free, more present, and more equipped to live on your own terms.

Spencer Copland
Registered Psychotherapist, RCC, MCP
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting and relentless, often pulling you into cycles of intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours that are hard to break. You might experience distressing thoughts, images, or urges, alongside a strong need to perform certain actions or mental rituals to reduce anxiety. Even when you recognize that these patterns don’t make logical sense, they can still feel incredibly real and difficult to resist.
In our work together, we’ll approach OCD with both understanding and structure—recognizing how these patterns have developed while also working toward meaningful change. Using a trauma-informed and attachment-focused lens, we’ll support your nervous system while gently building your capacity to face feared thoughts and situations without relying on compulsions. This process is collaborative and gradual in a way that feels manageable and supportive.
I draw from approaches such as Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), ACT, IFS, Mindfulness-Based CBT, EMDR, and somatic-based practices, tailoring our work to your unique needs. ERP is a highly effective, evidence-based approach for OCD, helping you reduce compulsions and build tolerance for uncertainty over time. Together, we’ll develop practical tools while also supporting deeper healing.
I offer both in-person and virtual counselling sessions. You’re welcome to reach out or visit my website to book a free 20-minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit.
