OCD
Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
OCD is an incredibly isolating experience that often carries a heavy weight of shame and self-judgment. I want you to know right away that this is not your fault, and no one would ever choose to be stuck in a relentless cycle of intrusive thoughts and exhausting rituals just to feel briefly safe. I am deeply passionate about helping you break out of this mental prison. Using a direct, compassionate, and evidence-based approach, a core part of our work will involve Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Step-by-step, we will practice becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable. By integrating mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we will collaboratively face your fears without surrendering to the compulsions. We aren't trying to simply ignore the thoughts, we are working to strip away their power so you can finally experience true freedom.

Mia Klassen
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MPCC #3875, CT #2438, LSCC
The counting, checking, arranging, and repeating aren't the problem—they're your mind's desperate attempt to manage overwhelming anxiety and find control. I understand that even starting therapy might trigger your symptoms, so we'll build trust and safety first, letting your nervous system settle before pushing deeper. Once comfort is established, we'll explore what's really driving the compulsions: the underlying trauma, the unbearable uncertainty, the fear your rituals are trying to neutralize. You'll learn healthier ways to manage anxiety, challenge the obsessive thoughts without judgment, and gradually reduce the behaviors that have taken over your life. Freedom from OCD's grip is possible through understanding what fuels it.

OCD
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.

Kai DeMaeyer, Talk with Kai Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, RP (Q)
OCD is not about being particular or liking things clean. It's a cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsions that can quietly take over enormous amounts of time, energy, and quality of life. I work with clients using evidence-based approaches, with room for the shame and exhaustion that tend to travel alongside it. The intrusive thoughts don't make you a bad person. That's usually worth saying early.
