One Step at a Time: Walking Towards OCD Recovery

ONE TO ONE CLIENT

My experience with Daniella has changed my life. I thought I knew about OCD but throughout my sessions I soon realised how wrong I was. She is incredibly understanding, knowledgeable, and friendly, which made it easy to feel safe from the very beginning. She helped me really understand my OCD and taught me practical coping skills that I now use every day. I’m so grateful for her support and the positive impact she’s had on my life. I’ve had a recent break in my sessions and I’ve certainly missed them! I can’t wait to continue exploring my healing journey with her guidance.

Daniella has helped me understand what these thoughts are and has given me the tools to be able to live my life whilst living with OCD. I never feel judged and can be open with her as I feel this is key in recovery . She just wants the best for you and is so knowledgable regarding OCD and its tricks. The days when your OCD is screaming at you she is always there to provide guidance and encouragement.

Daniella is everything you need in an OCD specialist, she has quite literally saved my life and that isn’t because of her role, it’s because of how she does that role and ultimately who she is. Daniella has the unique ability to be both assertive and compassionate at the same time, she holds me to account and is honest with me in a way that at times can feel hard, but never to the point that I don’t see her as a huge source of support. I always know she’s ready to hold the big feelings with me even if she’s also encouraging me to cause them (or sometimes causing them herself!). There are days where I feel like I can't do exposures or can’t stop doing compulsions. There’s days where I feel like I can't do recovery and will never get better, but I can hand on my heart say that there’s never been a day I have considered ending my sessions with Daniella.

If you have ocd, you will know how powerful the urge can be to remove the things that make you even more scared than you already feel, and ERP is the scariest thing I have ever done. The fact that Daniella has created a world where I can hold that scary without considering stopping is the biggest endorsement I could ever give. She is truly a light, not only in the OCD space but in the world. I feel incredibly lucky to work with her and I can confidently say that I know that anyone who works with her will feel the shift towards something better, even if she has to hold that belief for you for a while.
