About

OCD Psychology Services Sydney (OCDPSS) was established to offer people suffering from obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (OCRD) and their families, access to affordable, state-of-the-art psychological interventions, care and support.

Because OCDPSS specialises in the treatment of OCRD, we can stay informed by research into the nature of OCRD and what psychological interventions and methods work best for these problems. OCDPSS also have expertise in specific psychological interventions shown to work for these disorders.
