Meet Justin
La Rose, RP

Justin La Rose has spent over a decade in clinical practice doing one thing: treating OCD. Not OCD alongside anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. Just OCD. That specificity is the point. He is the founder and Clinical Director of The OCD Clinic by La Rose Counselling Services.

His treatment model is ERP: Exposure and Response Prevention. Not because it's the only tool available, but because it's the treatment with the strongest evidence base for OCD. Every client gets a customized exposure hierarchy built around how their specific OCD works, not a generic protocol.

Justin works with adults across Ontario in individual therapy, with couples through the OUR OCD method, and with international clients through OCD coaching. He also supervises therapists learning to treat OCD with ERP.

He doesn't take every referral. If ERP isn't the right fit, he'll tell you. The goal is for you to not need therapy, and that starts with being honest about what treatment actually requires.
