Learning Objectives:
After completing this workshop in its entirety, you will learn how to:
Discuss case examples for at least five distinct mental presentations, including Harm OCD, Relationship OCD, Sexual Orientation OCD, Existential OCD, and Pedophilia OCD.
Apply ERP strategies specifically designed to disrupt mental rituals and reduce reactivity to intrusive thoughts, images, and urges.
Tailor exposures to the unique cognitive and emotional challenges of presentations, empowering clients to confront feared thoughts without engaging in covert rituals.
Workshop Description:
If you have struggled with helping people who experience mental compulsions, we have you covered. Our goal in this talk is to run through numerous case examples to review how we made ERP for mental compulsion-based OCD. We will show you how to identify a mental compulsion (you have to ask about them), and then how to conceptualize ERP for them. Along the way, there will be some humor, friendly banter, and on-the-fly ERP for all to enjoy and participate in.
By the end of this workshop, clinicians will leave with practical tools to confidently recognize and intervene with the hidden compulsions that keep OCD intact—even when there’s nothing to see on the surface.
