Loving someone with OCD, and not sure what to say any more?

If you've answered the same question for the fifth time today, or checked things for someone you love because it's the only way they can settle, you're doing it out of love, and you're not alone. What Do I Say? is my short video course for partners, family and friends, opening early 2027. Join the waitlist and I'll send you a free phone wallpaper as a little thank-you, with one of the supportive lines from the course.


What the course covers

What's happening for them


The OCD loop, what intrusive thoughts are, and why logic and reassurance don't reach them.

When helping keeps OCD going


The everyday, loving ways families get pulled into OCD, and what to say instead when they ask again.

Supporting them, and you


Making one small plan together, and looking after yourself through all of it.

Where shall I let you know?

About me

Hi, I'm Charlotte. I'm a BABCP-accredited CBT therapist and EMDR practitioner, and I specialise in OCD. I worked in the NHS before setting up my private practice, and I'm a mum of two.

I'm making this course because so many of the families I meet are doing their very best and still feel stuck. It's a short video course you can watch at your own pace, with a workbook to keep, and the waitlist hears first, with a founding price just for them. You matter in this too.
