THE HOUSE PARTNERSHIPTRUSTED & CONFIDENTIAL
OCD Therapy, Counselling & CBT ~ London W1 & EC1
We are a professional partnership of counsellors and CBT therapists based in London, providing one-to-one therapy to help you to work through problems with obsessions and compulsions, and the anxieties surrounding these thoughts and behaviours.
As many as 80% of us have minor compulsions which don’t affect our everyday life in any major way. But someone with obsessive compulsive disorder — perhaps two to three per cent of us — can feel forced to perform certain actions in the same way, maybe many times, usually every day. Not doing so can cause great anxiety and preoccupation.
