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 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 would really like to thank Maggie for all the help she has given me past few months, I'm not sure where I would be without her help, those were some pretty difficult times for me and I really appreciate all she has done! I often use the tools I've learned in course to help me cope in certain situations and look forward to using them in the future.

"So far the customer service has been outstanding! There was an issue with my initial registration and the assistance they provided was extremely unexpected. They had one representative work with me until the it was fully resolved. I received emails without any prompting from me. They handled it well, quickly and in a very personable manner."

"I find this service very professional and helpful. There's no way I could fit in a traditional face to face therapy in my hectic life.. I like to be able to choose my pace through this healing path. Therapist answers are always emphatic and focus just on what is more relevant .
And Yoga is another very powerful tool!"
