Online Therapy for OCD

Category: OCD Online Therapy | Last updated: March 11th, 2026 | Medically reviewed 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.

"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!"

"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."

"I love the price point and that it allows me to schedule and know I will have 4 appointments in a month. I loved the quick matching with a therapist and the accessibility of changing my therapist easily whenever I feel its needed. The video session interface is easy to use and was clear though at times there was a voice echo (will be doing next session on laptop to compare connections); overall I am enjoying the accessibility of this service as well as the help I receive from my therapist here!"
