Compulsions are repetitive behaviours that a person feels compelled to perform in order to reduce the anxiety generated by obsessive thoughts. Repeated hand washing, checking locks multiple times, or arranging objects according to rigid patterns are examples of compulsive behaviours that can significantly impair daily life.

Dr. Robert Bergonzi’s practice in Milan offers psychotherapy for the treatment of compulsive behaviour and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The therapeutic intervention aims to understand the function of compulsive rituals, gradually reduce their frequency and intensity, and develop alternative methods for managing anxiety.

The treatment is personalised to the needs of each patient and may include individual sessions and specific techniques for managing obsessive thoughts. The goal is the recovery of freedom of action and psychological wellbeing.
