Overcome Your OCD with Online Therapy

Category: OCD Online Therapy | Last updated: September 20th, 2025 | Reviewed and approved 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.

"I found Dr. Lucy Evans via the Online Therapy portal, and she has been amazing. If she is a representation of the therapists that are screened for this site, then I would recommend it to anyone. Dr. Evans is incredibly brilliant at what she does and takes my real world scenarios and helps me understand the cause and effect using psychological and physiological principals. The therapy portal is always consistent and sends meeting reminders regularly at a great interval. I love the worksheets and yoga, all the extras that the portal offers with therapy."

"I started therapy about 2 weeks ago after struggling with my problem for 7 months with little change and even maybe worsening over that 7 months…. I have put my best foot forward with my therapy and taken it seriously to move forward and have seen good results in just two weeks…. I am continuing to finish this and move on completely from my problem but I am hopefully optimistic"

"This program as whole is exactly what I need and have been looking for. The cost for what you get is so affordable compared to other programs. The options are convenient. The tools keep you on track. I love the online journaling keeping giving me a go to in between sessions. I love the worksheets that make me think and guide me through more than just talking with my therapist. I love the available articles to read. Lastly, I love the therapist that I am working with. Finding someone that you can talk to easily and is actually helpful is the biggest challenge with therapy for me and I couldn't be more grateful for the therapist, Karla, that was assigned to me. I will be sticking with this program for the foreseeable months ahead and feel confident that it will be my first go to if, or when, problems arise in the future."

"The worksheets helped me learn more about myself, and got me to really think about who I am as a person. Therapist live sessions were very insightful, nudging me to think in the right direction. A lot of preparation work required if you want the session to be efficient, but I think it's worth it. Would also help if therapist would do some prep work as well, and maybe suggest areas to explore on before each session based on previous sessions."

"Dr. Vicki has helped me so much in such a short time, it's amazing! She has always been very flexible, patient, and caring with her approach. She has allowed me a safe space to not be ashamed of myself or the things that I want to change. I value my relationship with her very much, and I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to pull a complete 180! She has made an extremely positive change in how I see my life, my situation, myself, my brain, and my challenges. Thank you so much!!"
