Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) involves unwanted, intrusive thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals (compulsions) aimed at reducing the distress those thoughts cause. The Meeting Matters offers evidence-based treatment to help you regain control from OCD's cycle.
Ready to talk to someone?
OCD is often misunderstood as simply liking things neat and orderly — in reality it's a distressing cycle of intrusive thoughts and compulsions that can take hours out of each day and significantly disrupt work, relationships and daily functioning.
We use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold-standard treatment for OCD, alongside Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, to help you gradually face feared thoughts and situations without performing compulsions — breaking the cycle over time.
Treatment starts with understanding your specific obsessions and compulsions, then builds a structured, paced plan for exposure work — always at a rate that feels manageable, never rushed.
