For when you can't access therapy right away or challenging moments hit at 3AM and there is no one there to support you. ObsessLess helps you with: DAILY QUESTS FOR BUILDING OCD COPING SKILLS Ollie guides you through short daily quests that help you face OCD step by step. Each quest takes about 10 minutes and focuses on one part of your OCD experience: intrusive thoughts, urges, or compulsions. You'll learn how to sit with anxiety, resist rituals, and build confidence over time. Every day brings a new quest that adapts to your progress, so you always know what to do next. SOS BUTTON FOR OVERWHELMING MOMENTS One tap connects you to Ollie, your AI OCD Support companion based on principles from Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and ACT.

Ollie teaches you approaches to defuse obsessions and recognize mental compulsions in real time. BUILD CONFIDENCE IN RESISTING COMPULSIONS Checking, counting, reassurance seeking, every compulsion keeps OCD going. ObsessLess walks you through exercises informed by ERP to break these habits and build skills your brain remembers.

Train your attention. Quiet your mind. Take back control of your focus. Built around the Attention Training Technique (ATT), this app provides a structured way to practise attention training and develop greater control over where your focus goes. Through guided exercises, you learn to shift attention deliberately rather than becoming stuck in worries, distractions, overthinking or repetitive thoughts. Originally developed as part of metacognitive approaches to mental wellbeing, ATT helps strengthen attentional flexibility by training you to move, sustain and broaden your focus. Regular practice can help you become less caught up in rumination and more able to direct your attention intentionally. Whether you’re looking to improve concentration, reduce overthinking, or build greater control over your attention, Attention Training: ATT Timer provides a simple and practical way to practise.
