Episode 8: Mastering Intentional ERP for OCD
In this episode, we explore the power of intentional Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for managing OCD. Key points include:
• Understanding ERP and its initial challenges
• The benefits of proactive vs. reactive ERP
• Simple techniques to practice intentional ERP daily
• Methods for disengaging from intrusive thoughts
• The importance of celebrating progress, no matter how small
• Tips for tracking improvement over time
We discuss how even short, regular ERP sessions can make a significant difference in managing OCD symptoms. Listeners will learn practical strategies to implement intentional ERP in their daily lives, helping them take control of their OCD rather than simply reacting to it.
Remember: Your thoughts are not you—they're your OCD. With practice, you can learn to disengage from these thoughts and reduce their impact on your life.
