Living with OCD can be a challenging and isolating experience, but you don't have to face it alone. As a specialized psychologist, I am dedicated to providing support and guidance to individuals navigating the complexities of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. Together, we'll explore personalized strategies to manage intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviors, fostering a sense of control and relief. My approach combines evidence-based interventions with a compassionate understanding of the unique nuances of OCD.

If you rely on repetitive rituals to negate or moderate external influences, you will be only too aware of the habitual nature that has taken control of you. Logically you know the performance of repetitive rituals doesn't alter external circumstance. But that message often doesn't get to the emotional brain. I can help you reassess these by starting with the more minor examples and gradually developing increased confidence to reassess the influence of these rituals to the point where they can be dispensed with -- leaving you with empowered perspectives.
