Anthony De Lemos Kawka
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist
OCD is more than habits — it’s a cycle of distressing thoughts and compulsions. I use evidence-based strategies to help clients reduce the grip of intrusive thoughts and regain control over their lives.

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.

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.

Shannon Kane
Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Psychotherapist, and Counsellor RP, C.R.P.O, H.B.A, M.A.C.P
Obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors can create distress and interfere with daily life. I help clients understand the underlying anxiety driving their OCD, develop healthier coping mechanisms, and gradually reduce compulsive patterns through CBT, exposure therapy, and mindfulness techniques. My approach is gentle, supportive, and tailored to each individual's unique needs.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Approach: CBT-informed support with referral for specialized ERP when indicated.
I help clients understand the relationship between intrusive thoughts, anxiety, avoidance, and compulsive behaviours. Because Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a specialized evidence-based treatment for OCD, I would refer or collaborate with an appropriately trained clinician when ERP is required
