OCD

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts and repetitive behaviors that individuals feel driven to participate in.

People often feel a need to carry out these behaviors in order to alleviate the anxiety and stress that is associated with the obsessions and compulsions.

“In order to recover, we must first believe that we can.”

Struggling is part of the human experience. Resilience Therapy helps you bounce back stronger.

This experience can be highly distressing and can make it challenging to get through daily life, including time spent at work and school, due to the disruptions. 

Our approach at Resilience Therapy recognizes the diverse manifestations of OCD, tailoring treatment to address both the mental and physical rituals and compulsions unique to each client. By integrating evidence-based therapy with the nurturing and empathetic culture we employ in our practice, we aim to reduce the distress associated with OCD and improve overall functioning and quality of life.
