How we can help with OCD

We will talk you through the support options that may be helpful. This might include a psychiatric assessment, talking therapy, or a combination, depending on your needs.

If you choose to go ahead, we will agree next steps with you. For OCD, psychological support often focuses on breaking the cycle of obsessions and compulsions using evidence-based approaches, such as CBT with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), a structured approach that helps you reduce compulsions and rebuild a sense of safety without needing rituals.

Some people also find medication helpful, particularly if OCD is severe or having a significant impact on you. Any medication options would be discussed carefully with a clinician.
