Overcome Your OCD with Online Therapy

Category: OCD Online Therapy | Last updated: February 1st, 2022 | Reviewed and approved by:

Most of us have, at some time, felt uncertain about leaving the iron or the stove on and some have even gone home to check. This type of behavior is just normal and doesn't cause any damage or harm in one's life. However, if you have intrusive "what if" thoughts, and your need to perform these behaviors on a regular basis and they interfere with your daily life, then you might be suffering from OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder).

OCD is a condition marked by irrational beliefs (obsessions) and rituals (compulsions). The obsessions are recurrent, unwanted thoughts that are difficult or impossible for you to ignore and cause you anxiety. By performing repetitive, ritualized compulsions, you (temporarily) ease your anxiety. It may, for example, be that you often wash your hands very thoroughly, or check all the locks in your home. You may feel like you "have" to do these rituals. These thoughts and behaviors most likely take up a lot of your time and energy, causing you significant stress which can cause tension in your relationships and other aspects of your life.

Luckily there is hope, even if you have tried to stop your compulsions before and it has not been as successful as you would like. Our therapy for OCD is based on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). With the help of CBT and your therapist, you will identify what triggers your OCD. You will learn how to face your obsessions and find ways to refrain from ritualizing. Eventually you will be able to face these triggers without the need to perform your normal rituals (like washing your hands several times in a row or checking the lights numerous times). You will discover how to replace these negative thoughts with more realistic ones. Eventually you will be in charge of the thoughts and behaviors that previously have been fueling your OCD, so that you can live life free from obsessions and compulsions.

"I've been to various doctors for my chonic headache over the past 2 and a half years and also did chiro, botox, and everything else, but those didn't help at all. With Dr. Evans' help, though, I've been able to achieve a meaningful reduction in my pain! It's awesome! She also has a keen way of understanding your situation without you having to spell it out, which is exactly what you want in a therapist.

Thanks, Dr. Evans!

"I love this service. At first I was hesitant cause I haven't heard the best about online therapy services like this or better help but I'm very glad that I signed up.
I really appreciate the 40% off for the first two months as I'm currently unemployed and the therapist I've been working with is very fit to match me with my needs and help that I require. I appreciate the opportunity to be able to reach out whenever I need to and the response is very prompt. 10/10

"I’ve struggled with my mental health my entire life. I recently be struggling with a measurable amount of grief and anxiety, and just overall feeling lonely and isolated. Taking the step to sign up for therapy was easy and thanks to this website I was able to get connected and seen within 24 hours. This has been extremely helpful versus traditional therapy, where often you were waitlisted and can take weeks for you to be seen, is extremely discouraging when you don’t feel like you have weeks to be seen. I’ve never had an online therapy like this but, so far I really have enjoyed the videos and worksheet exercises where I feel that I am being more overall, mindful of my feelings and getting them out instead of feeling like I have to talk quickly to ensure I get everything out and the time allotted."
