Natasha Mano
Registered Psychotherapist, RP (Q)
Hello, I'm Natasha, and I want you to know that you're not alone in dealing with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I understand that the intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviors can be incredibly distressing and challenging to manage. But there is hope, and I'm here to help you take control of your life again.
I specialize in working with individuals who are navigating the complexities of OCD. In our therapy sessions, you'll find a safe space where you can talk about your experiences openly. Together, we'll explore the nature of your obsessions and compulsions and develop strategies to break free from their grip.
OCD can affect different aspects of life, from daily routines to personal relationships. I'm here to provide guidance, support, and evidence-based techniques to help you manage your symptoms and reclaim your sense of agency.
Throughout our journey, you'll learn coping mechanisms, mindfulness practices, and strategies to challenge the patterns that OCD has created. Remember, you have the strength to overcome these challenges and rewrite the narrative of your life.
Let's embark on this journey towards empowerment and change. Reach out to me today, and let's work on overcoming OCD together, one step at a time, towards a life that's not defined by rituals and fears.

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.
