Definitely helps, I like the meditation videos found on YouTube, they do help for a variety of mental health issues. I also practice solitude, at least 15 minutes a day I spend doing absolutely nothing. I also recommend reading some books about OCD, it can't hurt. I don't know why you haven't tried therapy sooner  Cognitive Behavior Therapy seems to be the best from my experience. You need to find a therapist that you can get along well with and feel comfortable opening up to. If you have the time, become obsessive about your recovery. Read any books recommended by your therapist, they will help. Check out this link about CBT, hope this helps.
