The OCD & Anxiety Podcast

Robert James Pizey brings something different to the OCD podcast world: the perspective of a coach and peer who has personally lived through severe OCD, rather than a clinical therapist. With 591 episodes released biweekly, this is one of the most prolific OCD-focused shows out there. Episodes typically run 6 to 22 minutes, making them easy to fit into a commute or a lunch break. Robert shares his own recovery journey alongside practical coaching insights, focusing on building a better relationship with anxiety rather than trying to eliminate it entirely. He covers topics like rumination spirals, the urge to seek reassurance, and the tricky moments when you cannot tell if a thought is real or OCD. His tone is direct and no-nonsense but also encouraging -- he clearly remembers what it feels like to be in the worst of it. He also offers private coaching and a 12-week structured program for people who want deeper support. Rated 4.7 stars with 138 reviews, this podcast works especially well for people who respond to lived-experience storytelling and prefer shorter, focused episodes over long-form interviews.
