How OICBT Helps With IBS and Health Psychology

Irritable Bowel Syndrome and related gastrointestinal concerns often involve a bidirectional relationship between digestive symptoms, stress, emotions and nervous system functioning. OICBT provides evidence-based support for ibs and health psychology through care that is matched to your needs, goals and preferences. The clinic uses a personalized intake process to recommend a strong service fit, and OICBT clinician profiles identify irritable bowel syndrome, IBD, chronic stress and health psychology concerns as relevant areas of focus. Depending on fit, care may include health psychology support and individual therapy for illness adjustment and coping.

  • Care is collaborative, client-centred and guided by research-informed recommendations.
  • Treatment may draw on CBT, ACT, DBT, Schema Therapy, mindfulness-based approaches and health psychology strategies.
  • Goals may include symptom relief, practical skills, resilience, relationships, daily functioning and values-based action.
