This interactive workshop will provide an opportunity to learn about the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) cycle and symptom dimensions, taboo types of OCD, exposure and response prevention therapy (Ex/RP), the prevalence of misidentification, as well as the ethics behind identifying symptoms and referring out early on in the treatment process if appropriate.

Participants will learn how to begin to reframe anxiety in general and within the context of OCD treatment. Exploring why traditional talk therapy and relaxation techniques are contraindicated when treating OCD, attendees will also develop a strong base in Ex/RP assessment and treatment by exploring case vignettes and video clips of the treatment process.
