Living with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can feel exhausting and isolating, but effective help is available.

I have experience working with people who have mild, moderate, and severe OCD. I generally take a CBT-based, exposure/response prevention approach when helping people to overcome OCD. This depends, of course, on your experience of OCD. I am also available to help autistic people manage OCD-like symptoms they find troubling.

Gaye Mallinson - Somatic Psychotherapies
Counsellor/Therapist, B.Soc.Ser. (Couns), Dip. Couns, Trauma Informed Yoga Cert, Pranayama Cert, Nidra Cert
I work primarily from a Rogerian or Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) approach using a conversational style listening patiently to you, always with empathy, genuineness and without judgement, to help find the solutions you desire for your life whilst adjusting my techniques to fit your needs within each session.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) behaviours can lead to feelings of embarrassment and shame, often leading to isolation from others. It can also have further unwanted negative effects on health and happiness within. I can also utilise various assessments to measure the severity of a specific problem, as well as determining your progress within therapy. I can provide a copy of these for your doctor to assist you further where requested.
I am able to utilise specific somatic (mind/body) therapy techniques within the therapy session to support greater healing of the underlying and often subconscious cause. These gentle but effective techniques create a new positive sense of self.
My aim is to assist you with your life difficulties from obsessive compulsive behaviours to restore balance, happiness and inner peace with various techniques of 'talk therapy' and somatic (mind/body) healing methods, along with offering practical strategies that may be useful where suitable and desired by you. Whatever you are going through, know that there is hope - Let me help you find that hope.

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.

Carmen Rossitto (Clinical Psychologist)
Psychologist, B.A (Psych) (Hons), MPsych (Clinical), MAPS, FCCLP
Struggling with intrusive thoughts? Do you just have to do certain things or else you feel very nervous. Learn to take control back. Exposure and Response Prevention is the most effective treatment for OCD and works relatively quickly.
