Treatment Modalities for OCD

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) has the potential to seriously affect one's daily functioning, relationships, and quality of life. It is characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts, images, or urges and repetitive behaviours or compulsions performed to reduce anxiety or distress. With appropriate treatment and support, many people with OCD can experience significant symptom reduction and improved psychological and emotional well-being.
Effective, evidence-based treatment for OCD can include:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
  • Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a specialized approach within CBT. ERP involves gradually facing feared situations while resisting compulsive behaviours.

Find an OCD psychologist or psychotherapist who is suited to your unique needs. Our team is composed of clinical psychologists and psychotherapists who provide a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment to help you thrive.
