OCD
Paighe Rojas
Registered Social Worker, MSW, RSW
OCD isn’t just worry—it’s a cycle of intrusive thoughts, distress, and compulsions that temporarily relieve anxiety but strengthen the loop over time. Therapy can help you learn evidence-based tools to tolerate uncertainty, reduce rituals, and get your life back from fear. We’ll move at a pace that is challenging but safe, with clear structure and support.

Kalyna Scherbluk
Registered Psychotherapist, RP, Qualifying
Obsessive-compulsive disorder can feel overwhelming, especially when intrusive thoughts and compulsions interfere with daily life. I support clients in understanding the nature of OCD, reducing shame, and developing strategies to manage anxiety and regain a sense of agency. Therapy is a place to separate identity from symptoms and move toward relief and clarity.

OCD can involve intrusive thoughts, anxiety, compulsions, reassurance-seeking, avoidance, and feeling trapped in cycles that are difficult to interrupt. Therapy can help you understand these patterns and build coping strategies that support more freedom and flexibility. When needed, we can also discuss referrals or coordinated care for more specialized OCD treatment.
