The OCD Centre is a dedicated online, telephone and in-person treatment centre for individuals with anxiety conditions particularly Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. We are unique in that :
* 80% of our staff have personal experience of OCD
* We practice an innovative recovery and management programme based upon genuine research, experience and results.
* We offer you help or treatment – DRUG FREE – in the format you want it, at the times that suit you, at an affordable price.
* We have a dedicated staff and an after hours helpline.
We vary our services to meet the needs of everyone who contacts us, whether it is a sufferer or a carer. We then assess our service throughout our contact with you to adapt it to your needs as you move through the various stages of recovery.
Our approach is to tackle the dysfunctional beliefs and behaviours that OCD develops directly.
We believe that OCD is essentially the brain malfunctioning not a result of past experiences or situations. While we know these can be triggers for OCD, we concentrate on a person’s responses and behaviour to that so that we can retrain the brain to change those thoughts.
Each stage is moulded to fit you and your specific OCD. We will show you how the brain misfires and why it’s doing it, affects you. Understanding the ‘nuts and bolts’ helps you to realise what you are fighting!
Next we show you how your reactions (rituals) and thoughts aren’t what they’re supposed to be and help you to realise how you should be thinking.
We pride ourselves on a therapy that isn’t all sat in a ‘therapy room’ talking about it. During one to ones, we aim to get you out “in the field” posing you challenges head on to help you prove to yourself all that you have learnt so far.
Our mission is not to keep you in treatment but to equip you with the skills to control and build upon your long term recovery.
As the relationship between the OCD Centre and you develops we have a clear aim to shift control back to you as soon as you are ready.
Empowering the client is a crucial element in the relationship for us.
