Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
WHAT IS IT?
OCD can create a mental tug-of-war between compulsions (rituals or behaviours) and obsessive thoughts that feel uncontrollable. These rituals can take up hours of your day, impacting relationships, work, and your overall quality of life. You may feel trapped by the need to "make things right" or prevent harm, only to feel that the cycle never ends.
HOW THERAPY HELPS
Therapy for OCD focuses on breaking the cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), you'll learn how to gradually resist the urge to engage in compulsions while reframing the intrusive thoughts that drive them. This process will help you regain more mental space and reduce the grip OCD has on your life.
PRACTICAL AND EMOTIONAL BENEFITS
You’ll practically gain the ability to manage your symptoms without falling into compulsive behaviours. Emotionally, you’ll experience relief from the constant mental clutter and anxiety. Over time, you’ll regain more time and energy for things that truly matter to you, instead of being caught in the OCD cycle.
