Kyle Loney
Counsellor/Therapist, MC, RCC, CCC, LCT-C
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can easily get to a point of running our lives, having us feel disconnected from ourselves and others, and causing us to spend much of our day stressed and uncomfortable. I use Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help my clients work with their OCD and get back to a sense of control, stability, and safety. Moving away from OCD is a careful process of working with our fears and understanding our patterns, so that we can get better doing what needs to be done, and sitting in emotion when the best option is doing nothing.

Ida Uzelman
Counsellor/Therapist, MPCC-P, RTC
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder can feel consuming, making it hard to focus, relax, or feel in control. I provide a safe, compassionate space to explore the patterns and triggers behind intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, while helping you develop practical strategies to manage symptoms. Together, we work toward reducing anxiety, building resilience, and creating a life where OCD no longer dictates your daily choices or limits your potential.

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.

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.
