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.

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.
