OCD is a complex, overwhelming condition but there are proven techniques to help reset your brain and thought patterns to let go of those compulsions because continuing to give in to them only pulls you deeper down.

Jonathan Livingstone Therapy & Coaching
Psychologist, MSc, MA, PGCE, GMBPsS
OCD, whether it relates to behaviour or to thinking, is driven by feelings. I will help you to identify where these feelings come from in your biography, and resolve the experiences that created them. With the resolution of the origins of the problem, you will no longer be subject to the OCD behaviour.

OCD
Jayne LESLEY Allen
Therapist, MIBWRT(AC and Coach, TFT DX, NLP Practioner and Coach, Hypnotherapist
Living with obsessive thoughts or compulsive behaviours can feel exhausting and isolating. OCD isn’t a lack of willpower—it’s a pattern wired into the brain that can be shifted with the right support. In our work together, I draw on neuroscience-based therapies, BWRT®, and practical coaching strategies to help calm intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsions, and create new, healthier pathways in the mind. Alongside this, practices such as mindfulness and energy work can support you in finding greater balance, self-compassion, and peace of mind. Together, we’ll work at both the conscious and subconscious level so you can reclaim a sense of freedom and control in your life.

Empowered Wellbeing, Decolonizing Intersectional and Integrative Complex Trauma & Dissociation Recovery Support
Life Coach, view my credentials online at: www.recoveringfromwithin.com/credentialslongform
OCD is interesting in that it could have trauma based origins, physiological origins, including epigenetic, or could be an adaptive response to something that is currently challenging. First is to decipher where the origin is as best as one can, in general an integrative and functional approach may work well, as it could be based in metabolic deficiency, for example.
Shared with care: in certain cases, we have witnessed it might evolve in people or communities where power abuse is rampant -- these compulsions can set in as ways to adapt to holding maladaptive and abusive thinking and distracting a person from the inhumanity and incoherence of the abusive thinking they have been groomed to take on. This is not written about from a hegemonic perspective, however decolonizing theory will find these challenges of OCD and even paranoia heightened in people or communities that habituate enacting atrocities. This is not trauma it is an expression of intensive moral injury and benefits from interrupting the moral injury and moving the person into ethical recovery of their humanity.
Contrapositively, trauma impactees may show OCD traits as a way of the mind distracting from torture or other forms of recurring harm psychologically (e.g repeated and intensive gaslighting), physically, sexually...etc. Here we would apply a trauma based approach to care along with Havening, Brainspotting and other ways to soothe a nervous system and restore mental networks as best we can/

Newcastle is a post-industrial city with a strong community identity and a culture of pride in its Geordie heritage — a character that values directness and social warmth, and where accessible, non-clinical therapy styles find the broadest acceptance. The city has experienced significant economic hardship since the decline of coal mining and shipbuilding, and therapists frequently address depression, employment stress, and the psychological effects of long-term economic deprivation alongside a growing student and tech-sector population. Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Jesmond, Gosforth, and the Quayside. Newcastle University and Northumbria University generate significant student mental health demand and feed clinical training programmes into the broader therapy community.
