Specialist OCD Treatment
I provide specialist Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Therapy is designed to help you understand how OCD operates, reduce compulsions, and learn to respond differently to intrusive thoughts and uncertainty.
Treatment is structured, collaborative, and tailored to your specific OCD presentation. Together we develop a clear plan that focuses on meaningful change — helping you gradually face feared situations, reduce avoidance behaviours, and build long-term confidence in managing OCD.
My approach combines evidence-based clinical practice, neuroscience-informed understanding, and practical strategies that can be applied in everyday life. Sessions aim not only to reduce symptoms but to help you regain freedom, flexibility, and a stronger sense of control.
Whether you are struggling with long-standing OCD or seeking support for the first time, therapy is paced carefully to help you make consistent and sustainable progress.
How OCD Therapy Works
Assessment & Goal Setting
We begin with a structured assessment to understand how OCD shows up in your life, what keeps it going, and what you would like to change. Together we define clear, realistic therapy goals tailored to your situation.
Individualised CBT & ERP Plan
Treatment is tailored to your specific OCD presentation. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP), we gradually work on reducing compulsions, facing fears, and building confidence in tolerating uncertainty.
Practice, Progress & Long-Term Change
