Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) a disorder characterized by recurrent intrusive or uncontrollable thoughts, causing stress (obsessions) that prompt the performance of rituals in a repetitive manner (compulsions). A person with OCD can have either obsessive thoughts and urges or compulsive, repetitive behaviours, or even both. Typical obsessions involve themes of contamination, dirt, or illness (fearing that one will contract or transmit a disease) and doubts about the performance of certain actions (e.g., a preoccupation that one has neglected to turn off a home appliance). Common compulsive behaviours include repetitive cleaning or washing, checking, ordering, repeating, and hoarding. Compulsions tend to relieve the anxiety, but only for a little while.

While such individuals realise that their seemingly uncontrollable behaviour is irrational, they are unable to stop. Their daily life is affected as simple tasks or chores take the form of insurmountable problems. Relationships with family and friends can often become strained or problematic.

Substance use disorders occur when the recurrent use of alcohol and/or drugs causes clinically and functionally significant impairment, such as health problems, disability, and failure to meet major responsibilities at work, school, or home. As people age, their bodies become less capable of tolerating addictive substances and more susceptible to negative effects. Adults may turn to addictive substances when coping with the stresses of child-rearing, balancing a career with family and managing a household. New risks for addiction and substance abuse may emerge for individuals in middle age who face financial pressures, divorce, the empty nest, personal or family illness, the economic and emotional stresses of caring for ageing parents or the death of a parent or other loved one. These substances not only lead to addition but may also contribute to psychiatric problems like mood disorders, anxiety disorders, sleep disorders and psychosis. Every persons experience with substance use disorder is unique, so our therapist aims to plan treatment that is tailored to individual needs of the client to ensure maxmimum benefit.

1. Have you ever experienced problems in your life from alcohol/drug use?
2. Have you ever used more alcohol or drugs than you intended?
