Nina Hopmeier
Licensed Professional Counsellor, Registered Clinical Counsellor (RCC)
OCD can be debilitating due to having unwanted, recurring thoughts that cause people to engage in frequent, repetitive behaviours in order to relieve anxiety. People with OCD often feel overwhelmed due to needing things a certain way with leaving little to no room for flexibility. Rigidity takes over, which can create feelings of sadness and helplessness. The therapy models that I use for OCD are primarily Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The CBT model involves challenging unwanted thoughts that may be exacerbating the OCD. Once clients identify the thoughts that are linked to the unwanted behaviours, they learn to have more choice over how they would like to respond to those thoughts. Gaining control over the unwanted thoughts is a powerful step in the healing process, as clients feel empowered to make independent choices that are in line with their values. Values-oriented work is largely derived from the ACT model. As we explore values, clients gain a deep understanding of the type of life they would like to live. They explore what makes life rich and meaningful and what changes need to happen in order to reach their full potential.

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
