OCD is sadly missed for alot of clients, especially if you have more internal compulsion and obsession ( such as rumination, checking, analyzing etc). I have seen hpow a great deal of clients have struggled with this for years and their mental compulsions take up a lot of time and energy. For this I like to support people with having a different relationship with their thoughts, recognising when they are doing compulsions that may fly under the radar and addressing the underlying anxiety.

Having Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can be incredibly distressing. It involves intrusive, unwanted thoughts that lead to repetitive behaviors or mental acts aimed at reducing anxiety. These compulsions provide temporary relief but create a cycle of distressing obsessing thoughts and compulsive behaviors. The constant fear of something terrible happening if rituals are not performed can be paralyzing. Despite recognizing that these obsessions and compulsions are irrational and disruptive, individuals with OCD often feel powerless to stop them. Therapy, such as Narrative Therapy (NT), is used to explore their experiences, while lifestyle changes and mindfulness techniques can help manage symptoms. Internal Family Systems may also be employed to identify and address the roots of these behaviors. Each person's journey with OCD is unique, but an integrative and evidence-based approach can lead to a significant reduction or elimination of symptoms.
