Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
ERP Therapy is a modern approach to helping people with OCD.
Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) occurs when a person gets caught in a cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are unwanted, intrusive thoughts, images, or urges that trigger intensely distressing feelings. Compulsions include behaviors and/or rumination in an attempt to get rid of the obsessions and/or decrease distress. In order for a diagnosis of obsessive compulsive disorder to be made, this cycle of obsessions and compulsions becomes so extreme that it consumes a lot of time and gets in the way of important activities that the person values.
