Counselling and Psychotherapy Yarraville
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, MEd, BEd, BA, Dip T, Dip Counselling, Dip Hypnotherapy
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a neurobiological condition rather than a psychological or emotional condition. It is part of the anxiety family but it requires very specific interventions. Based on the work of Drs Jeffrey Schwartz and Rebecca Gladding, I offer metacognitive behaviour therapy which allows the person with OCD to see themselves as the thinker of the thoughts that are disturbing them. And then to change those thoughts.
