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 glad that me and my husband were able to find a marriage counseling situation that works for us. Being a therapist myself, I was hesitant and Katie and embraced this and has been able to help me quite a lot to separate provider from wife. She presented herself in a way where we both feel supported and able to tap into vulnerability. Make plans and move in a direction that is healthy. My understanding is that Katie has a history of providing trauma services to individuals as well in addition to many other things- Very knowledgeable, Supportive, And also able to tow the line and set boundaries for us both in a way that is gentle. Thank you so much Katie and Online Therapy! My husband and I both believe that we will be able to keep our marriage intact and move forward in a healthy way and would likely not have been able to do this without the service that Katie is providing. Highly recommend this therapist, regardless of the issues that one is living with!! Danni & David"

"India was gentle but firm in making me address issues I didn't realize I was avoiding. I'm a tangled mess of thoughts and she picked right at what might just be the root of it within our first conversation - I think we both got lucky, but she is also good at what she does."

"When I first started this program I wasn’t entirely sure how I’d feel in the end but I can honestly say that I am feeling better. It took me two days to complete but I do feel better and I am definitely looking forward to my therapy sessions!"
