Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Therapy
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) involves intrusive, distressing thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals (compulsions) performed to reduce anxiety. These patterns can become time-consuming and interfere with daily life.
Therapy focuses on helping individuals understand the cycle of obsessions and compulsions and develop strategies to reduce their impact.
Overview
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): The gold-standard treatment for OCD. Clients gradually face feared thoughts or situations while resisting compulsive behaviors.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps challenge distorted beliefs that reinforce obsessive thoughts.
Mindfulness-Based Strategies: Help individuals observe intrusive thoughts without reacting to them.
