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.

Colin Hayward
Registered Psychotherapist, MEd
When working with OCD, I focus on helping clients understand both the patterns behind their thoughts and the behaviours that keep the cycle going. Often, compulsions develop for understandable reasons—they are attempts to reduce anxiety or regain a sense of control. However, eventually they get in the way of us living the life that we want. Together, we take the time to explore what may be driving these patterns while also working on practical strategies to loosen their grip.

Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, you may feel trapped in cycles of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours. The thoughts can feel unwanted and distressing, often centred around fear, responsibility, harm, contamination, or doubt. The compulsions may temporarily reduce anxiety, yet the relief rarely lasts, and the cycle begins again. Over time, this can feel exhausting and isolating.
At Selah Counselling, we approach OCD with compassion and clinical clarity. We understand that OCD is not about preference or personality. It is a pattern rooted in anxiety and nervous system activation. Together, we work to reduce the power of intrusive thoughts, build tolerance for uncertainty, and gently interrupt compulsive behaviours through evidence-based strategies. Our goal is to help you regain freedom, strengthen regulation, and live with greater confidence rather than being driven by fear or rituals.

Theodosia Daflos
Counsellor/Therapist, MA
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder can look very different from person to person. For some people, it will involve actions that they feel they have to do over and over again, and can't stop doing. For others, it may mainly involve intrusive thoughts that pop into their mind over and over again, when they don't want them, and which are very upsetting. Some people who had mild versions of these thoughts or compulsions may have been triggered to more severe experiences during the past few years. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, we will work on changing your relationship with these thoughts and urges, so that you no longer feel trapped by them every time they occur.
