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.com has been a genuine find for anyone with a packed schedule. The async messaging format means you don't need to carve out a fixed hour every week, you engage on your own time. I got matched with a therapist who actually fits my communication style and approach, which I honestly didn't expect from an algorithm. If you've been putting off therapy because of logistics, this removes most of the excuses."

"This is my third week at Online Therapy. The therapy work is intense, and I feel really tired on an emotional level, but I am so incredibly grateful for this opportunity.
I have an amazing therapist who is very capable of guiding and supporting me through this healing process. Although I know there is still a long road ahead of me, I am already noticing improvements that make a huge difference for me and feel deeply meaningful. I feel truly grateful that I was able to start therapy now, while my child is still young and can benefit from having a mother who is calmer, more relaxed, and more in control of herself — and therefore much better able to co-regulate a little one.
If anyone reading this is wondering whether they should do it: do it. You are worth it. It can change you, change your perspective, give you valuable tools, and help strengthen and rebuild you from within — if you are willing to truly engage with the process."
