Overcome Your OCD with Online Therapy
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 "what if" thoughts and need to have control occurs on a regular basis and interferes 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 ease your anxiety. It may, for example, be that you wash your hands very thoroughly and often, or check all the locks in your home.
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 you can reduce your obsessions by exposing you to these triggers and challenging them. 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 identify the fears that are linked to your OCD and learn to know that these fears are not realistic. You will be taught to replace these negative thoughts with more realistic ones. Eventually you will be in charge of the thoughts and behaviors that previously have been nurturing your OCD, so that you can live life free from obsessions and compulsions.

"This therapy has helped me so much, I never thought I would find such an incredible therapist as Maggie Sweet. Her insights, knowledge, empathy, honesty, helped me to overcome so many fears in such a small amount of time. She empowered me and helped me gain back trust in my self.
The way this program is designed; the sessions, worksheets and chat sessions, work wonderful because I had time to reflect on my own writing to later have a talk about it with my therapist.
I totally recommend this program. Thank you Maggie!"

"You are the best, you know that!?
Since I started my sessions here my rituals have dramatically been reduced, and in two weeks I was free from rituals! I cannot tell you that I don't want to fall into my rituals but what I am telling you is that I am taught how to overpass them and how to manage my obsessive thoughts and my compulsive behavioirs.
At this right moment I am going in the third week of therapy and I am dealing with my fears, imaginations and traumas, exploring myself in order to find the root of my disorder.
The best thing during the therapy on-line is the fact that the process of empathy is working amazing! In traditional sessions the therapist may do his/her head up and down without words, but in this therapy on-line the therapist is feeding us with plenty of emotions and feelings in order to be able to explore ourselves.
I really enjoy having Maggie as my therapist...
If I lived in US I was going to come and find you. Do you know something? If I ever come to US I am going to come and find you for one traditional session.
By the way, I am going to recommend you to others."

"Well, I am working here with CBT and with my therapist and I think that this therapy is really AMAZING!....
I would like all you to notice that when I was welcomed to this website I had severe symptoms, including many many many many rituals that were causing me discounts in my daily life...!
In one week I was able to manage my OCD symptoms!... I was able to identify my fears and to work with them.. Actually I am still working with them and with all my rituals...
Now two weeks after therapy my rituals are 0% and the results of OCD had dropped from 60/100 "most likely to have OCD" to 40/100 "minor OCD"...
I still need to fall into my rituals because I am used to do my rituals here and many years, but I am not...! I thought that I could never succeeded but I've started to have small targets and to succeed them..
Hey guys, my therapist here sais "Whoo hooooo" when I succeed to my small goals, so lets all take this "Whoo hoooo" and make it personal by taking strength to master our symptoms and to take our life backs!
We worth it!!!!!
LETS ALL SUCCEED
LOOOVVVVEEEE u all brothers..."
