Lia Khalili
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist (RP)
At Bright Start Bright Future Counselling Centre, I specialize in providing compassionate support and effective therapy for individuals struggling with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Through personalized treatment plans tailored to each client's unique needs, I help individuals regain control over their thoughts and behaviors, leading to a happier and more fulfilling life.
My approach to OCD therapy integrates evidence-based techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). By working collaboratively with clients, I assist them in challenging their obsessive thoughts and reducing compulsive behaviors, ultimately breaking the cycle of OCD.
I provide a safe and supportive environment where individuals can explore their OCD symptoms without judgment. Together, we develop practical strategies to manage anxiety, overcome triggers, and improve daily functioning. My goal is to empower clients to live fully and confidently, free from the constraints of OCD.
If you or someone you care about is struggling with OCD, I am here to help. Contact me today to schedule a consultation and take the first step towards recovery.

OCD
Dennis Keefe
Registered Psychotherapist, M.A.
I like to help clients let go of the need to control everything. Often the cost of preventing bad things from happening is greater than the cost of the bad things actually happening. I often use CBT to do structured work beginning with psychoeduction particularly around the causes of OCD and what is maintaining it. Then an examination of unhelpful thoughts specifically targeting the client's thoughts about the intrusive thoughts. Often followed by Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) where the client is aided in reducing compulsive behaviour.

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.
