Some OCD questions feel dangerous to ask. You might be thinking, “What if my question means something?” or “What if I already know the answer?” This space is about validation... not reassurance, not judgment, not pressure. Feel free to join us just to listen.

Not every day with OCD feels the same. Energy, stress, and rest can all change how intense things feel. Ups and downs are part of the process, not proof that you’re back at square one. Check out our latest blog: Why Does OCD Feel Different Every day?

If your child’s worries, fears, or urges seem to be taking up more space lately, you’re not alone, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own.

Our March Break OCD Skills Camp is a gentle, supportive space where kids build confidence one small step at a time. Through connection, creativity, and evidence-based practice (ERP), children learn how OCD shows up for them — and how to respond with curiosity and bravery, not pressure or perfection.

No diagnosis required. No prior ERP experience needed. Just a thoughtful next step, guided by paediatric OCD experts who truly understand kids and families.

📅 March 16–20, 2026
📍 Barrie & King City
👧🧒 Ages 4–15

If you’re wondering whether this could be a good fit, we’re always happy to talk it through. Registration 🔗in bio

Discharge days are our favourite kind of days! There’s something incredibly special about the day a client is discharged from OCD treatment. Yesterday, our office was filled with streamers, treats, music, and a lot of proud smiles as Samantha Boddington, one of our therapists, celebrated a discharge with a young client. What they were really celebrating can’t be captured in photos. They were celebrating a person who chose courage over comfort again and again. Who showed up on hard days. Who faced fears that once felt impossible. Who practiced resilience when OCD told them they couldn’t. That special certificate they received? It represents every brave exposure, every moment of uncertainty tolerated, every time they kept going anyway. Courage deserves to be celebrated. 🎉

Our therapists love these moments because seeing clients reclaim their lives is why we do this work.

Only one week until our first OCD-Informed Practice training of the year! If you’ve ever wondered what to say when someone shares about their experience of repetitive, intrusive thoughts—or worried about accidentally reinforcing OCD—this training is for you. Small shifts in understanding can make meaningful differences in care.

01/19/2026

Quick reminder: OCD isn’t about being neat, and intrusive thoughts don’t reflect who someone is. Accurate information reduces harm. Informed responses make a real difference for people living with OCD. If you're feeling unsure of how best to support a client or patient living with OCD, please check out our OCD-Informed Practice course: www.ocdip.com

Want your practice to be the top-listed Clinic in Barrie?

Welcome to OCD North

Welcome to the clinic! I'm glad you're here. If you're reading this you either suffer from Obsessive - Compulsive Disorder or supporting someone who is. I'm Merrisa, and I'm here to help.

Throughout my education, practicums, and work experience, I knew I never wanted to become a generalist.

As a Registered MSW, I took a special interest in OCD and became certified in Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.

Here's why I love treating in OCD:
