Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD

#responseprevention #therapy #ocd
Cognitive-behavioral treatment is the gold standard for obsessive-compulsive and related disorders (OCRDs). The behavioral portion is called exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP).
OCD is a common psychiatric condition characterized by intrusive, distressing thoughts and repetitive behaviors aimed at reducing that distress.
ERP is a type of behavioral therapy that exposes people to situations that provoke their obsessions and the resulting distress while helping them prevent their compulsive responses. The ultimate goal of ERP is to free people from the cycle of obsessions and compulsions so they can live better. ERP targets the cessation of repetitive behaviors, such as compulsions. ERP, is the most commonly recommended form of therapy for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Thanks for the upload, I did a lot of research into OCD when creating my UA-cam video and it’s definitely a topic that should have more awareness!
