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.

"There are many things I enjoy about this service. I like that I can message my therapist anytime and they respond quickly. I love the price of the service. I love the structured program that it provides. The reading and worksheets have made me think and work really hard in ways I didn't expect. I'm only 3 weeks in. I'm excited for what's next."

"I often only pay for one month of online therapy and then can't pay for another one. But I'm having such a useful experience that I'm definitely gonna do another month."

"very very very helpful so far
asking the right questions
I've been really happy with OnlineTherapy.com. Getting matched with a therapist was quick and easy, and the interactions have genuinely helped me work through what I was struggling with. Being able to message my therapist and fit appointments around my schedule made a huge difference — it felt way more accessible than in-person therapy. Highly recommend if you're looking for flexible, quality support.""

"OnlineTherapy is a great way to get immediate access to high quality therapy. For me this has been a wonderful opportunity to start with therapy. Therapy has been very helpful for me. I am learning new tools and techniques to help myself, gain new perspectives and insights about myself and the world around me. I have the best therapist in the world and am so grateful for her highly valued support. The only challenge I have encountered so far is getting support with the platform when you need support. That proved to be complicated and I need to wait long and keep writing emails until a solution can be found. For therapy and the great platform itself I would totally give the full five stars! Thank you for this opportunity, I guess it was my only way of getting help soon and simple!"
