11.01.2022 When health experts are recommending we need frequently wash our hands to prevent the spread of COVID-19, it can be confusing for OCD sufferers who are trying to resist their compulsions. This article summarises how to resist OCD while also sticking to the guidelines.

09.01.2022 There is a lot of uncertainty at the moment, and many people are unable to attend the clinic due to illness or vulnerability. At CCAO we offer Telehealth services via Zoom for those who need it. This article by Dr Cynthia Turner at the Moore Centre is a positive reminder that online therapy is just as effective as face-to-face therapy for kids with anxiety and OCD.

04.01.2022 Exposure therapy sounds pretty scary, right? Many people with anxiety avoid seeing a therapist who does exposure therapy because they are afraid or unsure of what it will involve. In our latest blog post, we explain how exposure therapy works, and why we recommend it to all of our patients with fear-based problems!

01.01.2022 Intrusive thoughts in OCD are "ego-dystonic", which means they are distressing and inconsistent with the person's self-concept. People with OCD do not act on their unwanted intrusive thoughts. This story highlights why #ocdawareness is still so important!
