Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapists in Winnipeg, MB

My name is Recene Valgardson and I am an Indigenous mental health therapist. My goal is to provide a holistic, person-centered, anti-oppressive approach to counselling that is culturally safe and accessible. I believe that every person is the expert in their own lives, and I feel honored to be a part of their journey. In providing therapy my number one goal is to ensure folks feel validated and supported to allow for space for processing and healing.

Most of my clients struggle with Anxiety, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and/or Depression. Often times, their day-to-day activities suffer due to the implications of these challenges. Their relationships, professional goals, and personal aspirations seem difficult to realize. Their primary goal is to live purposeful, happy lives alongside Anxiety, Depression, and/or OCD. They wish to manage the impact of these challenging mental health problems and feel empowered.

You may come to therapy for relief from depression, anxiety, fear or other stressors. Maybe you want to get to know yourself better, change patterns that are not working for you, or because you aspire to grow and be a better version of yourself. I offer a safe, non-judgemental space to navigate your way through life transitions, separation, doubt, difficult choices, pain, trauma, stress, relationships or important life events such as marriage or the birth of a child. I hold a place for you to find your voice, explore options, invite different perspectives, discover your purpose and feel empowered.

Living with OCD or anxiety can be scary and overwhelming, but you don't have to face it alone. With my expertise and dedication, we can work together to help you take back control from the OCD. I help individuals and their family members stop engaging in compulsive behaviors and reduce the impact that intrusive thoughts have in their daily life.

I have a Masters degree in Social Work with 22 years of clinical experience in mental health providing Individual, Couples, Family and Group Therapy. My approach is holistic with an emphasis on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy and Exposure and Response Prevention. My approach incorporates both a Trauma Informed lens and Mindfulness based strategies. My experience is extensive and emphasizes how our thoughts and emotions impact our ability to move forward in wellness.

Are you struggling with obsessions causing intrusive ideas, urges, images, or thoughts that are unwanted and may cause guilt, shame or worry? Engaging in actions in order reduce the upsetting feelings or to prevent something bad from happening? Do you require family members to accommodate or participate in the compulsion? OCD can cause you to feel stuck and worrying about the "what if's". I provide Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) which has been found to have the most strong effect on the successful outcome of treatment for OCD.

Do you struggle with intrusive thoughts, images, impulses or urges that cause you anxiety? Are you confined to a personal prison due to your compulsions? You’re not alone. Obsessive compulsive disorder can be incredibly debilitating, but there is hope. You can take back control of your life, and I can help you get there.

While stress, anxiety, sadness, health problems, and relationship conflicts are a common part of life, if they're interfering with work, school, family, relationships, or other areas of your life that are important to you, you may benefit from therapy. My clients experience a range of difficulties from anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD, depression, substance or impulse control issues, chronic pain or health problems, and high-conflict relationships. The thing they all have in common is they feel like their emotions, behaviours, or past experiences have prevented them from living the fullest, most meaningful life possible.

The focus of my private practice is on healing unresolved trauma and on developing healthy relationships. The symptoms of unresolved trauma include PTSD, substance abuse, stress, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, OCD, etc... My training in trauma work started in 2007 and is based on the work and teachings of Peter Levine's Somatic Experiencing model. Whether you are going through a crisis or wanting to resolve a long-standing issue, therapy can help you gain some insight and can assist you in creating the life you want to live.
