Our clinician-favorite OCD and Anxiety Lecture Series is back—join us November 14 for our next free, virtual talk.
Many clinicians are familiar with exposure with response prevention (ERP), an evidence-based treatment designed to dismantle the system of behavioral reinforcement that perpetuates OCD. It can be challenging to translate these principles to mental behaviors, as clinicians and clients alike can struggle find ways to disengage from mental compulsions and rumination without falling into the trap of distraction or thought suppression.
During this presentation, Ben Eckstein, LCSW, will share concrete tools clinicians can use to help clients build awareness of mental compulsions and practice a variety of non-engagement strategies.
