If you’re nervous about starting coaching, that makes sense.

Many people who come to Still Minds Psychology worry about things like:

I’m not sure it’s possible to get better

How could coaching possibly help, I feel lost

What if I’m judged for what goes through my mind?

If you’re asking those questions, you’re not alone—and nothing about them disqualifies you.

Intrusive thoughts, mental images, urges, or doubts can feel alarming, shameful, or hard to explain. They do not reflect who you are, what you want, or what you value. You do not need to filter, justify here.

Coaching helps you understanding how anxiety and OCD operate, learning skills that actually reduce their power, and moving forward at a pace that feels safe and collaborative.

You are allowed to:

• Ask questions

• Go slowly

• Feel unsure

• Take time deciding if this feels like the right fit

Nothing needs to be perfect for you to begin.

While coaching can be an expense, many clients view it as an investment. My clients find working with a highly trained specialist is still more cost effective than years spent trying to treat their condition with someone who does not understand how anxiety, OCD or phobias work. I work with people to recover and teach you the skills to handle issues effectively

Therapy and coaching serve different but sometimes complementary roles.

Therapy is a licensed clinical service that focuses on diagnosing and treating mental health disorders, processing past experiences, and addressing symptoms that significantly interfere with daily functioning. It’s often essential when someone is in acute distress or needs formal clinical treatment.

Coaching, on the other hand, is forward-focused and skills-based. It emphasizes practical tools, behavior change, accountability, and helping you apply what you already know into real-world action. Coaching does not diagnose or treat mental illness, but it can be highly effective in supporting recovery from OCD and phobias when grounded in evidence-based principles.

For OCD and phobias in particular, recovery depends less on insight alone and more on consistent behavioral practice, such as reducing avoidance, tolerating uncertainty, and responding differently to fear. Coaching can be especially helpful for:

• Practicing exposure-based strategies in daily life

• Breaking reassurance-seeking and safety behaviors

• Building confidence in managing anxiety independently

• Staying accountable and consistent between challenges

• Shifting from “knowing what to do” to actually doing it

Many people come to coaching after therapy or alongside it, when they’re ready to focus on implementation, momentum, and long-term maintenance. For others with mild to moderate symptoms, coaching may be an appropriate first step.

Importantly, ethical coaching includes clear boundaries and referrals.

In short:
Coaching helps you apply, practice, and move forward.
For OCD and phobias, that combination can be powerful.
