What an Online OCD Assessment Involves

  • Confidential Video Consultation

    Your assessment begins with a clinical assessment during a 50-minute private video session. Your psychologist will determine which array of screeners and assessments will be most suitable and are delivered securely online, designed to protect your privacy while giving your psychologist the information they need. This step ensures the assessment starts with an accurate picture of your OCD symptoms, as well as any traits that might overlap with other personality or anxiety-related disorders.

  • Discussion of your experiences

    You’ll have the chance to talk through the thoughts, behaviours, and routines you’ve been noticing — whether that’s intrusive thoughts, compulsive actions, rigid patterns, or other traits that may impact your day-to-day life. This conversation adds important context that questionnaires alone can’t capture and helps your psychologist understand how OCD affects you personally, as well as whether other personality patterns may be playing a role.

  • Use of validated assessment tool/s

    Your psychologist will use evidence-based tools specifically designed to assess OCD, along with measures that help rule out or identify related personality or anxiety disorders. These structured tools clarify symptom severity, behavioural patterns, and how closely your experiences align with diagnostic frameworks. Using validated assessments ensures your results are accurate, consistent, and clinically reliable.

  • Feedback and recommendations

    Once the assessment is complete, you’ll receive clear, supportive feedback that explains your results in straightforward language. Your psychologist will outline whether your symptoms indicate OCD, whether other personality traits may be contributing, and what steps are recommended next — from therapy options to coping strategies or further evaluation. The goal is to give you clarity and a practical plan moving forward.

 FAQs about online OBsessive Compulsive disorder assessments

  • You may benefit from an OCD assessment if you’re experiencing intrusive thoughts, repetitive behaviours, mental rituals, or a strong need for control or certainty that’s hard to shake. If these patterns are time-consuming, distressing, or interfering with your work, relationships, or daily routines, an assessment can help clarify whether OCD — or a related personality or anxiety disorder — may be contributing.

  • An online assessment allows you to explore your symptoms in a comfortable, familiar environment, which many people find helps them open up more honestly. You’ll still receive the same structured, evidence-based process used in face-to-face assessments, but with added accessibility, privacy and flexibility. It’s ideal if travel, scheduling, or anxiety make in-person sessions difficult.

  • After the assessment, your psychologist will walk you through the results in clear, supportive language. You’ll receive personalised recommendations based on your goals and what the assessment shows — whether that’s therapy options, strategies for managing compulsions or intrusive thoughts, or further evaluation if another personality or anxiety-related condition may be involved. The focus is on clarity and a practical next step.

  • Online OCD assessments use the same validated tools and structured clinical methods as in-person assessments. The accuracy is comparable, and discussing symptoms from home can lead to richer, more open conversations.

  • The length of the clinical assessment can vary, but most people can expect the full process to take place over 2-3 sessions — including assessments, clinical evaluation, discussion, and feedback — each session runs for 50 minutes. If additional tools are needed, your psychologist will explain the process and keep things straightforward.

  • If appropriate, your psychologist can provide a formal diagnosis or written report (which will attract a fee) based on your assessment results. Whether this is necessary depends on your goals — some clients want clarity for personal understanding, while others need documentation for ongoing care. Your psychologist will guide you on what can be provided and how it may be used.

  • All assessments are conducted by registered psychologists with specialised training in OCD, anxiety disorders, and related personality traits. They use evidence-based tools and follow professional, ethical standards to ensure your assessment is thorough, accurate, and supportive.

  • Booking is simple — you can choose a time that suits you through our online booking system. Once booked, you’ll receive a confirmation email and a short intake form to complete before your session. Once that’s done, you’re all set for your online OCD assessment.
