OCD
Dr. Justin Dubé
Psychologist, Ph.D, C.Psych
Anxiety provoking intrusions and the ways that we manage these can be extremely disruptive. What's worse is that the harder we try to manage our intrusive thoughts or images, the stronger they become. I have extensive training in the gold standard treatment for OCD -- Exposure and Response Prevention -- and will help you to learn skills to effectively manage symptoms of OCD and built a life worth living.

Viewpoint Calgary Psychological Services
Psychologist, RPsych
Living with OCD can make you feel like a hostage in your own mind. When distressing, intrusive thoughts trigger overwhelming anxiety, and repetitive compulsions or mental checks feel like the only way to find safety, daily life becomes an exhausting loop of constant vigilance. You shouldn't have to spend your days performing rituals just to get a moment of peace, nor should intrusive thoughts make you question who you are.
At Viewpoint Psychological Services in Calgary, our therapists offer specialized, evidence-based care to help you disarm OCD and step out of the doubt trap. Using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) with a central focus on Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—the gold standard in OCD treatment—we partner with you to safely break the cycle of compulsions and rebuild your trust in yourself.
Together, we’ll help you:
- Interrupt the Compulsive Cycle: Master practical ERP skills to tolerate uncertainty and resist compulsions, starving OCD of the control it holds over your daily life.
- Neutralize Intrusive Thoughts: Disarm shocking or distressing obsessions with compassion, learning to see them for what they are—brain noise that has no bearing on your character or values.
- Reclaim Your Time & Freedom: Dramatically reduce the time and energy spent on rituals so you can direct your focus back to your relationships, career, and passions.
You don't have to keep giving in to OCD's demands. Let’s partner together to help you quiet the alarm system, take back control, and live on your own terms.
