Here’s the updated description for OCD:
Accepting New Clients
I assist clients with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) through a combination of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the latest neuroscientific insights. This approach helps build new pathways in the brain, reduce compulsions, and develop healthier, adaptive ways to cope with fear, fostering a renewed sense of control and hope.
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Recreation Therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel empowered with knowledge and tools to build confidence and create meaningful change. Group therapy options are also available for those seeking additional support in managing OCD.

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.

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.
