OCD
Bhavna Lalwani
Registered Psychotherapist, MA Counselling, RP
OCD can feel consuming—thoughts, urges, or rituals may take up significant mental and emotional energy, often leaving you frustrated, anxious, or exhausted. You might find yourself stuck in patterns that feel uncontrollable, or constantly trying to prevent worst-case scenarios, even when they don’t make sense to others.
In therapy, I provide a compassionate space to understand how OCD shows up in your life and work with you on strategies to manage intrusive thoughts, reduce compulsions, and regain a sense of control. The goal is to help you live more freely and confidently, without being ruled by fear or ritual.

Satvinder Khurme

Every one of us has habits, but when some habit becomes disruptive and effects an individual’s smooth functioning in day-to-day life that can be challenging and if not treated at an early stage it can become a mental illness.

OCD
Joanna Szczeskiewicz
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) is characterized by presence of obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are the unwanted intrusive thoughts and images that can include unwarranted concerns about a loved one dying in their sleep, disturbing vivid images of stabbing a person standing nearby, or worrying about having grabbed a used needle and injecting oneself with drugs without even being aware of having done so. Obsessions are all about uncertainty. Compulsions represent attempts at dealing with that uncertainty. Some compulsive behaviours appear to make at least some sense (e.g., being vigilant about wellbeing of others), while others don’t make any sense at all (e.g., counting to 100 each time a thought of potential harm comes to person’s mind). Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) protocol for OCD starts with building an inventory of obsessions and compulsions that the affected person engages in. This is followed by cognitive interventions that seek to understand and challenge the beliefs that underpin these symptoms. Many persons with OCD recognize the irrational nature of their thoughts and behaviours. So we use exposure response prevention (ERP) techniques that teach at a very visceral level that despite undeniable initial discomfort, letting go of one’s rituals does not lead to danger. It might not be the most comfortable treatment but, given its proven effectiveness, it’s worth the effort.

Brampton is one of Canada's fastest-growing and most ethnically diverse cities, with a majority South Asian population — predominantly Punjabi, Gujarati, and Hindi- and Urdu-speaking communities — creating strong demand for culturally grounded therapists who understand the intersection of South Asian family expectations, immigration stress, and mental health. Stigma barriers to therapy access remain significant in some communities, and therapists who can work within South Asian family frameworks and address help-seeking stigma sensitively are especially valued. William Osler Health System's Brampton Civic Hospital provides institutional mental health resources, with a growing private practice community. Many residents also access care through the broader Greater Toronto Area therapy ecosystem, particularly via telehealth.
