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.

"Online therapy has been such a wonderful experience. Easy to use, I love my therapist & so many resources available! I am so grateful that they offer far more reasonable prices compared to other options available. I would not have been able to get the help I needed without them."

"I have used Online-Therapy like a 'drop in' occasional service, usually for a month or so at a time. I have just used the messaging (cheap) plan and I honestly found it pretty helpful. I find set video or in person sessions quite stressful and a pressure to relax and be open. Messaging works well for me as you have time to go off and think about each reply. I'd say if you are struggling why not give it a try? Not too much money for one month."

"I have to say, using online-therapy has been extremely beneficial for my life. I am a busy grad student and healthcare worker who has been dealing with a lot of anxiety around my line of work and my daily responsibilities of someone who works/goes to school full time. My therapist and I tackled the root of the anxiety and focused on strategies of things I can do when I am feeling overwhelmed. Overall, i feel like I have become a more calm person. I think of my emotions before I react. I journal, I deep breathe. These are all habits I have learned through therapy, and I am so grateful to online-therapy for having a platform that makes therapy easily accessible."

"The accelerated way that CBT functions is great and I got lucky with my therapist first try and connected very well. Sometimes it can be a little overwhelming but I think that is just the structure and how fast you dive into it."

"I have liked this so far. Sometimes it does take a while for a response, but the quality has overall been good as far as I can tell."

"I live in an environment where I can’t pick up and go see a therapist. I have found using this site, my chosen therapist and the structured program very therapeutic. I would recommend it to anyone who is feeling isolated and needs to reach out and seek guidance. Finding support is a text, click or virtual appointment away and I have found it very beneficial to my mental/emotional and physical well being."
