Our Services
At West Coast OCD and Anxiety we specialize in providing evidence-based virtual assessment and treatment for OCD, Body Dysmorphia, Specific Phobias, Social Anxiety, Panic Disorder, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. We use treatments that have been proven effective and we believe in tailoring treatment to each unique individual we work with. Virtual OCD treatment is accessible and allows clients to engage in therapy from their own environments — often the same places where anxiety and obsessive thinking/compulsions occur. Video sessions can enhance the effectiveness of treatments like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) by enabling real-time support during exposures in everyday settings. We also provide virtual support for family and friends of loved ones who are managing mental health diagnoses. These sessions help family and friends learn to effectively provide support without engaging in accommodation or behaviours that cause the disorder to worsen.
In addition to assessment and treatment, we also provide training the health care professionals who are interested in developing their skills in assessing and treating OCD and Body Dysmorphia. Alongside our training services, we offer individual and group consultation to health care professionals (e.g., counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists) who require or would benefit from supervision and consultation.
