Frequently Asked Questions About OCD Therapy in Kingston
Do I need a formal diagnosis to start therapy? No. You do not need a diagnosis to begin. Many clients come to us simply knowing that intrusive thoughts or rituals are affecting their daily life.
What approaches do you use for OCD? Our Kingston therapists use evidence-based approaches, including exposure and response prevention (ERP) informed strategies, tailored to your comfort level and pace.
Is OCD just about being tidy or organized? No. OCD involves distressing intrusive thoughts and compulsions that go well beyond a preference for order, and it can show up in many different ways.
Is OCD therapy covered by insurance? Most extended health plans cover services from a Registered Psychotherapist (RP). We recommend checking your plan for that specific coverage.
