OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, fears, uncertainty, compulsions, reassurance seeking, checking, or mental rituals that become exhausting and time-consuming. Our therapists help clients better understand the cycle of obsessions and compulsions and develop strategies for responding differently to intrusive thoughts and anxiety. Members of our team use evidence-based approaches for OCD, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), where appropriate.

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.

Sierra Gaudreault
Registered Psychotherapist, RP
Whether you have an official OCD diagnosis or not, intrusive thoughts can feel like a prison holding you captive in painful feelings, confusion about yourself or reality, a constant need for reassurance and/or avoidance. Together we can use Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard OCD treatment, to teach you how to help yourself when intrusive thoughts arise and reclaim a life that feels worth living.
