Katia Erokhina
Counsellor/Therapist, PACFA Certified Practicing Counsellor, Master’s-qualified Gestalt Psychotherapist
I offer counselling and psychotherapy for adults living with OCD, including those navigating intrusive thoughts, compulsions, anxiety, shame and the need for certainty. Drawing on Gestalt psychotherapy, I provide space to explore how OCD affects your sense of self, relationships and everyday life. Together, we can work towards greater emotional awareness, self-compassion and a different relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings. My work can complement specialist OCD treatment, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).

Individuals with Obsessive–Compulsive Disorder (OCD) are aware that their symptoms are irrational and excessive, but they find that the obsessions are uncontrollable or unstoppable and the compulsions are difficult or impossible to resist. Obsessions and compulsions are distressing, exhausting, and time consuming. It can significantly interfere with the individual’s daily routine, education/working life, family and social relationships. Obsessions and compulsions can lead to feelings of hopelessness and depression.

Unwanted thoughts, images or urges, and the rituals and checking that develop to manage them, can take up an enormous part of a person's day. We work with adults and young people on reducing that load, using structured cognitive and behavioural approaches rather than reassurance. We will also check whether what looks like OCD is better explained by something else, including anxiety or a neurodevelopmental difference, before settling on an approach. Available in clinic at North Lakes and online across Australia.

Mitchell Kovacs
Counsellor/Therapist, Level 2 Counsellor (ACA)
A therapist can help with OCD by breaking the cycle between understanding the root cause of OCD and what's behind the need to keep everything a certain way and by teaching skills that reduce anxiety over time rather than temporarily.
