OCD
Kevin Jones
Psychologist, MACP
My approach to supporting clients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) focuses on creating a safe and understanding space where they can explore the intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors that impact daily life. I use evidence-based strategies, including cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and exposure and response prevention (ERP), to help clients gradually confront fears, reduce compulsions, and regain control. I work collaboratively to develop practical tools and coping strategies while addressing the underlying anxiety that drives OCD patterns. My goal is to empower clients to manage their symptoms, increase confidence, and build a life that feels freer and more balanced.

OCD
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.

OCD
Selah Counselling, Mediation, and Training Center
Registered Social Worker, BSW, MSW, RSW
If you are living with obsessive-compulsive disorder, you may feel trapped in cycles of intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours. The thoughts can feel unwanted and distressing, often centred around fear, responsibility, harm, contamination, or doubt. The compulsions may temporarily reduce anxiety, yet the relief rarely lasts, and the cycle begins again. Over time, this can feel exhausting and isolating.
At Selah Counselling, we approach OCD with compassion and clinical clarity. We understand that OCD is not about preference or personality. It is a pattern rooted in anxiety and nervous system activation. Together, we work to reduce the power of intrusive thoughts, build tolerance for uncertainty, and gently interrupt compulsive behaviours through evidence-based strategies. Our goal is to help you regain freedom, strengthen regulation, and live with greater confidence rather than being driven by fear or rituals.
