People with OCD often have obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours that can negatively impact their lives in several ways. It can affect anyone, and many people experience unwanted, unpleasant thoughts or urges that can cause anxiety and distress. These then cause compulsions and repetitive behaviours that provide temporary relief, but can have long-term impacts that can affect personal relationships and interfere with work or study.
For example, somebody worried about dirt or germs may feel the urge to excessively clean, or they may avoid situations where they fear dirt. Others may have to check every door and window several times before leaving the house.
While everybody is different, those experiencing the effects of OCD can often feel shame or embarrassment that impacts their self-worth and quality of life.
Online therapy for OCD can be an effective way to reduce the impact OCD can have on your life. Usually, cognitive behavioural therapy for OCD is the best choice as it provides a structure for you to explore and understand your obsessive thoughts and fears, without feeling like you have to correct them. Over time, many people identify their triggers and develop coping strategies they can use day to day.
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is another effective therapy for OCD that can help you slowly confront your fears in small steps, allowing you to learn to fight the intrusive thoughts and compulsive behaviours.
Online therapies for OCD can be just as effective as in-person sessions, and many find that they prefer the discretion, flexibility and safety they provide. Our compassionate and empathetic OCD therapists will work with you to help give you your life back.
