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 like the worksheets because they allow me to work through what I need to work through but at my own pace. So when I hit a stall point it allows me to stop, to think, to reflect and then complete them."

"I didn't feel judged. I felt heard. She started with an introduction, my background, and what is bothering me, and what led me to seeking therapy. Then to wrap up the session she asked me to summarize any take-away from our session."

"I’ve been spiraling non stop with anxiety, panic attacks and lack of sleep which then lead me to feeling emotional and doubting everything. Within 2 sessions, worksheets, tips, and tasks to do daily it has really changed my thought process and how to go about my daily routine. Thank you I’m still working on it"
