Jane Wiltsie
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW, CYW
We will collaborate on the best treatment plan for you. I typically use a less traditional approach to CBT, in place of having you fill out a chart, I will ask you the questions. We can come up with exposure therapy that suits you.

Dr. Justin Dubé
Psychologist, Ph.D, C.Psych (Supervised Practice)
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.

MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
OCD is a self taught coping strategy (ex. Only If I check the door 3 times, it’s closed). Understanding the root cause of the anxiety that’s fuelling the behaviour is transformative because it brings awareness to the situation.

OCD
Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
MindFit offers a 10-12 weekly OCD-Busters program, personalized to your strengths and challenges, and grounded in gold standard evidence-based approaches which include cognitive-behavioural therapy and exposure and response prevention. More specifically, you and your clinician would talk more about what OCD is, discuss how thoughts-feelings-and behaviours are related/impact anxiety, list your feared situations, teach you strategies to manage your anxiety, and then engage in step-wise and gradual behavioral experiments to help you face your fears. Many of the coaches at MindFit have been trained specifically in OCD treatment and receive ongoing consultation and/or supervision.
It's important to note that OCD is not your fault! You didn’t do anything wrong to develop OCD. It’s not a matter of choice anymore than asthma or diabetes. It’s an illness and it can’t be cured through willpower. However, with the help of a professional, you can participate in effective “workout programs” (treatment plans) to regain control of your life.
