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.

"Excellent service. Very easy to schedule and I like that the therapist and I meet weekly online but also chat and work together on my worksheets in between sessions. The worksheets are very helpful and make the in person online sessions much more affected
I highly recommend!

"Our first therapist was really good but left the site after a couple of sessions. We got the money refunded for it and are now trying again, so far it was a good experience."

"I really appreciate how easy it is to not only find a therapist that fits my needs but the ease in switching if it's not the right fit. I also appreciate the affordability options, the convenient scheduling, and good quality audio/video on calls.

"Online therapy gave me access to affordable talk therapy during a hard time in my life. Due to circumstances and moving cities, I couldn’t fit in-person counselling into my schedule but I needed support. I would suggest this site to anyone."

"After a month or so I belive i can write a review for this site. It has a decent amount it offers for the price and the worksheets it provides, although they are not always the most indepth they do help to guide your thought process and conversations when you are unsure where to start. Easy to change therapist on this site and have no technical problems with this service so far. Overall its a good service for its price"

"After initial problems with the platform, I am so grateful to finally be in therapy and even thought I just started, it already makes a difference and I am hopeful and grateful to see where the therapy journey will still take 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!"
