You are an adult (21+) seeking online therapy for OCD and ready to engage actively in treatment. You may feel trapped in cycles of doubt, intrusive thoughts, and compulsions like mental reviewing, reassurance-seeking, or avoidance. You're looking for more than just talking about your problems — you want a structured, evidence-based approach that makes sense. Using Inference-Based CBT (ICBT), we'll work to understand and dismantle OCD's distorted logic, build practical skills, and help you reclaim your life. Together, we'll find what works so you can stop being ruled by doubt.
I am a clinical and forensic psychologist, practising since 2008, specialising in Inference-Based CBT (ICBT) for OCD. ICBT helps you understand why intrusive doubts feel so real — and how to disengage from them. Working with me, you'll get a structured, goal-focused approach and the practical skills to stop OCD from running your life.
Like you, I know what it's like to experience intrusive thoughts, fear, and doubt. But I also know what it's like to overcome them — to feel calm, confident, and present. OCD is treatable, and you don't have to do this alone. If you're ready to take the first step, reach out — I'd love to help.
Take the first step to help. Call or Michelle Wharton now - (08) 7008 9968
