OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, anxiety, compulsions, reassurance-seeking, avoidance, and feeling trapped in cycles that are difficult to interrupt. Therapy can help you understand these patterns and build coping strategies that support more freedom and flexibility. When needed, we can also discuss referrals or coordinated care for more specialized OCD treatment.

Ahmadreza Zamani
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
OCD, or Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, is a mental health condition characterized by persistent and intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental acts (compulsions). The compulsions are performed in an attempt to alleviate anxiety caused by the obsessions, but they often provide only temporary relief and can interfere with daily life activities.
Symptoms of OCD can vary, but common obsessions include concerns about contamination, a need for order and symmetry, and intrusive, distressing thoughts. Compulsions may include excessive cleaning and hand-washing, repeated checking, counting, or organizing, and mental rituals.
OCD can have a significant impact on quality of life, but it is treatable. Effective treatments for OCD include a combination of psychotherapy, specifically Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with exposure and response prevention (ERP), and medication. If you or a loved one is struggling with OCD, it is important to seek help from a licensed mental health professional to receive a proper diagnosis and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.

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.

OCD
Mindful Connections Therapy
Registered Psychotherapist
OCD is exhausting in a way few people understand: the intrusive thoughts you'd never act on, the rituals that promise relief but demand more each time, the shame of a mind that won't let go. None of it reflects who you are. You'll find a warm, nonjudgmental space here to understand how OCD operates, separate yourself from its demands, and gradually reclaim the time and peace it's taken. The goal isn't just to quiet the thoughts, it's to genuinely understand yourself, change your relationship with uncertainty, and build a life led by your values instead of your fears. Together we'll work toward feeling more free, more present, and more equipped to live on your own terms.

Lexi Gayne Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
OCD is an incredibly isolating experience that often carries a heavy weight of shame and self-judgment. I want you to know right away that this is not your fault, and no one would ever choose to be stuck in a relentless cycle of intrusive thoughts and exhausting rituals just to feel briefly safe. I am deeply passionate about helping you break out of this mental prison. Using a direct, compassionate, and evidence-based approach, a core part of our work will involve Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Step-by-step, we will practice becoming comfortable with being uncomfortable. By integrating mindfulness and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), we will collaboratively face your fears without surrendering to the compulsions. We aren't trying to simply ignore the thoughts, we are working to strip away their power so you can finally experience true freedom.
