Therapy focuses on understanding the OCD cycle and developing strategies to respond differently to intrusive thoughts and reduce the impact of compulsions.

Registered Psychotherapist, Psychotherapist |Counsellor| Parenting Coach M.S.P.C | M.A. Counselling | DIP. Parent Coaching
Living with OCD can feel exhausting- intrusive thoughts, compulsive behaviours, and the constant need for control can take over daily life. I offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space to help you understand your patterns, reduce anxiety, and develop healthier ways to cope.
Using evidence-based and trauma-informed approaches, we explore what’s driving the OCD cycle and work gently toward more freedom, emotional balance, and a restored sense of safety.

John Zavaglia (Mind LIfe)
Counsellor/Therapist, ACA Registered, PC Grad MHN & Neuro, MBA
OCD can leave you caught in a cycle of unwanted thoughts, doubt and behaviours that feel difficult to control. You may recognise the pattern but still find it hard to break. Together, we can better understand what's happening, develop practical ways to respond differently to intrusive thoughts and urges, and help you regain greater confidence and control in everyday life.

Psychologist, BA Psych Hons; MSc
OCD is often misunderstood and is more than just handwashing or checking. We provide affirming support that gently separates your identity from the intrusive thoughts and rigid patterns, helping you regain a sense of calm, flexibility, and confidence, without shame.
