About the Clinic

Built For
People With
OCD

The OCD Clinic in Toronto is a therapy practice that treats OCD and nothing else, using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), in person at Yonge and Bloor and by secure video anywhere in Ontario. It's part of La Rose Counselling Services. We built it because too many people with OCD were being treated with approaches that don't work for OCD, and wasting years in the process.

I'm Justin. I'm a Registered Psychotherapist (RP) with the College of Registered Psychotherapists of Ontario (CRPO). I've worked in mental health for more than 25 years and spent over a decade in clinical practice, with more than 15,000 hours of direct therapy. My clinical practice is focused on OCD, and I treat it with ERP. But nobody who walks in is a list of symptoms. You have a whole life: work, people you love, things you care about. At its heart, OCD is a phobia of your own thoughts, and it tends to go after exactly what you care about most. My team and I build treatment from ERP and fit it to the person in front of us.

I also supervise therapists who are learning ERP, so they can deliver the real thing, with exposures hard enough to matter, and not a watered-down version of it.

If you are deciding whether to work with us, the page on working with an OCD therapist in Toronto walks through who this is for, what sessions look like week by week, and what it costs. If you are outside the city, online OCD therapy across Ontario runs the same protocol over secure video.
