I am the head therapist of OCD Excellence, a practice in Kensington, London, specialising in the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. OCD Excellence is a collective of 5 specialist OCD therapists working towards clinical excellence in OCD treatment supported by an in-house research and academic team. I have developed a rigorous 3 year OCD specialist professional training programme which needs to be completed in addition to a formal CBT qualification by all of our therapists. I have been working in the field of OCD since 2003 and spent 8 years commuting between New York and London to deliver my own cognitive behavioural-based protocol. I have worked with large organisations to create an OCD-specific wellness programme for their employees. In order to raise awareness, I have featured on BBC Breakfast TV, Radio 5 Live, Richard & Judy, Trisha, and Radio 4. I have been a consultant to movies including Warner Bros, The Aviator, Granada Television’s Dirty Filthy Love and the BBC’s Obsessed documentary. I have been interviewed by or featured in the London Standard, The Sunday Times, Marie Claire, Woman and Home, the Daily Mail, British Vogue, the Express and many other publications. I was the first practitioner in Europe to develop an intensive intervention for OCD and the first to recognise 'new'' sub-types of OCD such as relationship OCD (ROCD) and homosexual OCD (HOCD). I was one of the first therapists to speak publicly about Responsibility OCD relating to paedophilia worries and have written papers on this sub-type as well as presenting at conferences in New York University, Cambridge University and Imperial College in London. I am active on social media and regularly update my blog https://www.ocdexcellence.com/blog
