Philip Starkman
Registered Psychotherapist, MSW, RSW
In my practice, I offer a compassionate approach to supporting clients with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), blending a range of therapeutic techniques to suit each individual's journey. Through the use of holistic strategies such as Mindfulness, the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Role-Playing, we tackle the complexities of OCD together. This integrative method allows us to address both the obsessive thoughts and the compulsive actions, working towards managing symptoms and reducing their impact on daily life. By emphasizing personal growth and self-awareness, we explore strategies for coping with anxiety, enhancing decision-making, and improving overall mental well-being. My role is to walk alongside you, providing the tools and guidance needed to navigate OCD, aiming to empower you with the strength and resilience to lead a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Here’s the updated description for OCD:
Accepting New Clients
I assist clients with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) through a combination of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and the latest neuroscientific insights. This approach helps build new pathways in the brain, reduce compulsions, and develop healthier, adaptive ways to cope with fear, fostering a renewed sense of control and hope.
As a Registered Psychotherapist and Recreation Therapist, I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental environment where clients feel empowered with knowledge and tools to build confidence and create meaningful change. Group therapy options are also available for those seeking additional support in managing OCD.

OCD
Dr. Kim Edwards
Psychologist, C.Psych.
MindFit offers a 10-12 weekly OCD-Busters program, personalized to your strengths and challenges, and grounded in gold standard evidence-based approaches which include cognitive-behavioural therapy and exposure and response prevention. More specifically, you and your clinician would talk more about what OCD is, discuss how thoughts-feelings-and behaviours are related/impact anxiety, list your feared situations, teach you strategies to manage your anxiety, and then engage in step-wise and gradual behavioral experiments to help you face your fears. Many of the coaches at MindFit have been trained specifically in OCD treatment and receive ongoing consultation and/or supervision.
It's important to note that OCD is not your fault! You didn’t do anything wrong to develop OCD. It’s not a matter of choice anymore than asthma or diabetes. It’s an illness and it can’t be cured through willpower. However, with the help of a professional, you can participate in effective “workout programs” (treatment plans) to regain control of your life.

MindfulWe Holistic Psychotherapy & Counselling Services
Registered Psychotherapist, MA, RP, IMD (candidate)
OCD is a self taught coping strategy (ex. Only If I check the door 3 times, it’s closed). Understanding the root cause of the anxiety that’s fuelling the behaviour is transformative because it brings awareness to the situation.
