Reclaiming Your Peace: Online Counselling for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
At CBT Wellness, we understand that living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel like being trapped in a relentless cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours. The constant battle with obsessions and the need to perform compulsions can disrupt your daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. We know you’re not alone, and we’re here to offer compassionate and practical support through our online therapy and counselling services.
Do you ever feel like your mind is playing tricks on you?
It’s common for people with OCD to experience:
- Unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images, or urges (obsessions): These can be distressing and cause significant anxiety.
- Repetitive behaviours or mental acts (compulsions): These are performed to neutralize obsessions or prevent feared outcomes.
- Intense anxiety and distress: The cycle of obsessions and compulsions can lead to significant emotional turmoil.
- Time-consuming rituals: Compulsions can take up a significant portion of your day, interfering with your responsibilities.
- Avoidance of situations or triggers: You might avoid places or activities that trigger your obsessions.
- Feelings of guilt, shame, or embarrassment: You might feel ashamed of your thoughts or behaviours.
- Difficulty concentrating or making decisions: OCD can interfere with your cognitive functioning.
- Relationship strain: OCD can impact your relationships due to the time and energy it consumes.
We understand how overwhelming these experiences can be. It's important to remember that you're not alone and that these experiences don't define you. OCD is a treatable condition, and with the proper support, you can regain control of your life.

Understanding Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)
ERP is the gold standard treatment for OCD. It involves gradually exposing yourself to the situations or triggers that provoke your obsessions while resisting the urge to perform compulsions. This process helps you learn that you can tolerate the discomfort associated with your obsessions without resorting to compulsions. Our therapists will guide you through this.
