Ready to create a gameplan that helps you feel calm, focused, and free? Let’s build it together.
You are not your compulsions. You are not broken. And you don’t have to keep fighting this battle alone. I am here to help you find the way.
You know it doesn’t make Sense—but your brain just won’t let it go.
You find yourself checking things over and over. Repeating certain actions, counting, or following rituals that feel urgent… even though, deep down, you know they aren’t actually keeping you safe.
And still—you can’t stop.
The fear, the doubt, the discomfort... it builds until the compulsion becomes the only thing that seems to quiet it.
You may be thinking:
“What if I don’t do this, and something terrible happens?”
“I know this is irrational, but I have to do it anyway.”
“Why do these thoughts keep repeating?”
“What’s wrong with me?”
It can feel like your brain is stuck on a loop—like a broken record skipping over the same track, again and again. The harder you try to stop the thoughts, the louder they get.
You might feel embarrassed, exhausted, or even ashamed. But you're not alone—and you're not broken.
OCD Isn’t Who You Are, There Is A Way Through
OCD tricks the brain into believing that unless you follow certain rituals, something terrible will happen.
It convinces you that you need to control everything in order to be safe. But it’s not true.
You are not your compulsions. And you don’t have to keep living this way.
OCD does not define you. And it doesn’t have to control your future.
Even if your brain feels stuck right now, it can learn something new. With the right support, you can break the cycle—so that life feels bigger, lighter, and more manageable again.
And more importantly: you don’t have to keep facing it on your own. Let’s create a gameplan that aligns with the person you want to become.
Hi, I’m Vanshika, therapist and founder of The Renewal Room
I have advanced training in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and I’ve supported many clients through the complexities of OCD—whether it’s checking, cleaning, counting, or intrusive thoughts.
I also understand the shame that OCD can bring. That’s why creating a safe, compassionate environment is at the heart of my work. You’ll never be judged here.
You’ll be seen. Supported. Empowered.
I offer a solution-focused, compassionate approach. We’ll work together to:
Set clear goals
Build emotional balance
Develop lasting habits that actually work for you
I’m not here to judge. I’m here to help you feel heard, valued, and empowered to create real change.
How Therapy Can Help
OCD thrives on avoidance and control. Therapy helps you face the fear directly—gently, safely, and at your own pace.
One of the most effective approaches for OCD is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). With ERP, we gradually expose you to the thoughts or situations that trigger your anxiety, while helping you resist the urge to perform compulsions.
Over time, your brain learns that the fear doesn’t have to be followed by a ritual. That you can tolerate uncertainty—and be okay.
We’ll also work on:
Challenging distorted thinking patterns
Understanding the roots of your OCD
Developing self-compassion and emotional resilience
Everything happens in a space that’s non-judgmental, collaborative, and safe.

What Life Can Look Like After OCD
Healing doesn’t mean never having intrusive thoughts again. But it does mean learning how to live with them—without letting them run your life.
“I feel more in control.”
“I’m not as scared of my thoughts anymore.”
“I can sit with uncertainty without panic.”
“I finally have time and energy for the things I care about.”
Therapy offers freedom—not from having thoughts, but from believing them, fearing them, or acting on them.

At the moment we are fully virtual, creating a space where we are accessible to all people that may need therapy. This is a great option for people with accessibility concerns, located in rural areas, complex schedules and people that prefer the comfort of their own home.
-
In the first session, our goal is to create a safe, supportive space where the client feels heard. We'll start by discussing confidentiality, what therapy looks like, and what they are hoping to gain.
We’ll ask about the clients life experiences, relationships, and cultural background to better understand their challenges. We’ll explore what’s bringing them to therapy, how it’s affecting them, and what coping strategies they have tried.
We’ll also identify their strengths and start setting goals. By the end, we’ll discuss a plan moving forward, including therapy approaches that may help.
-
My approach is gentle, patient-centered, and compassionate, creating a safe space where you feel heard and supported. I focus on helping you understand your emotions, build coping skills, and navigate challenges with self-compassion. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I tailor therapy to your needs, moving at a pace that feels right for you. Whether we’re working through self-doubt, anxiety, or deep emotional pain, I’ll be here with patience and understanding, helping you build resilience, self-compassion, and a life that aligns with your values.

While some people benefit from shorter-term support, others may need more time to work through challenges. We generally recommend 8 to 12 sessions to effectively implement strategies and see meaningful progress, but we’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. My goal is to support you in building lasting skills and insights that help you long after therapy ends.
