Marc Donegan, Psychotherapist
Registered Psychotherapist, Psychodynamic Analysis & Transactional Analysis, PACFA, BACP, ITTA, EATA, UKATA
OCD can be exhausting to live with, particularly when the compulsions are less visible and more internal. I help clients understand the anxiety driving the obsessive-compulsive cycle and build practical strategies to interrupt it, alongside the deeper work of addressing what the mind is trying to protect against.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns) Dist, Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) behaviours can lead to feelings of embarrassment and shame, often leading to isolation from others. It can also have further unwanted negative effects on health and happiness within. I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor to assist you further where requested.
I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from obsessive compulsive behaviours to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
OCD can leave you caught in a cycle of unwanted thoughts, doubt and behaviours that feel difficult to control. You may recognise the pattern but still find it hard to break. Together, we can better understand what's happening, develop practical ways to respond differently to intrusive thoughts and urges, and help you regain greater confidence and control in everyday life.

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.

Dr Israel Berger
Therapist, MBBS, FRANZCP, PGCert(Youth Mental Health), MPsych, PhD(Psych), CCTP
I have experience working with people who have mild, moderate, and severe OCD. I generally take a CBT-based, exposure/response prevention approach when helping people to overcome OCD. This depends, of course, on your experience of OCD. I am also available to help autistic people manage OCD-like symptoms they find troubling.
