It is okay to be nervous about OCD treatment. People often feel embarrassed about their thoughts or compulsions. We hold no judgment about these experiences. We understand and have likely heard it before and any thought or compulsion does not mean anything negative about you. Exposure and Response Prevention is the primary treatment technique used and is the gold standard for OCD treatment. We will guide you in a step-by-step process of exposing yourself to the thoughts and situations that are triggering your distress- without allowing a compulsion to stop the distress. Without the compulsive behaviors you will habituate to the distress or learn you can tolerate the thoughts/feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy skills will focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and developing personal coping strategies.
