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.

OCD
Dr. Patrick McGrath
Psychologist, O.C., C. Psychologist
Living with obsessive-compulsive disorder can feel like being trapped in an exhausting cycle of intrusive, unwanted thoughts and the urgent pressure to perform compulsive rituals just to find a moment of relief. It can take up enormous amounts of time and energy, leaving you feeling isolated and overwhelmed. You don't have to fight those mental loops by yourself. Using an evidence-based cognitive behavioural approach—including specialized tools like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)—we will work collaboratively and at your pace to gently untangle the grip of OCD, help you build tolerance for uncertainty, and reclaim your time, peace, and freedom.

OCD
Angela Popovici
Psychologist, Registered Provisional Psychologist, B.Sc Psych, MACP
I provide a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive space for individuals living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I understand that OCD can feel overwhelming, intrusive, and isolating, and believe that healing begins with compassion, understanding, and practical strategies.
Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)—including exposure and response prevention techniques when appropriate—and Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT), I work collaboratively with clients to identify triggers, challenge unhelpful thought patterns, and develop tools to manage obsessions and compulsions. My approach emphasizes empowerment, patience, and building confidence in one’s ability to cope.
I provide a supportive environment where clients can reclaim control, reduce anxiety, and cultivate a balanced, fulfilling life—one intentional step at a time.
