Online Therapy for OCD
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.

"Quick and Easy to get set up with a therapist and good flexibility in appointments. There are online worksheets to help you start off but also I found that talking in sessions helped to discover insights. My therapist has been great in teaching me to understand how my subconscious mind works, how this has been affecting me and helping me move forward from thoughts and behaviours that trouble me."

"Honestly, after leaving this therapy portal to try some others that are now being pretty much ran by AI and nowhere near as thoughtful I missed this. There's ACTUAL HUMANS even in the customer service which sounds little to some but mean a hell of a lot to me. Not only that, you get pretty good range of therapist from around the world that you can get a feel of and vet out. I found one that worked for me and genuinely missed her counseling. Highly recommended!"

"so far, so good! My therapist seems empathetic, compassionate and is easy to share with.
The therapy is expensive, perhaps because my last therapy was "rent-controlled" ha ha.
But it's all relative. My mental health is worth the expense!"
