What are we trying to accomplish when treating OCD? Reducing anxiety? Preventing compulsions? Putting a person in control of their life? These intentions can keep us from being truly helpful. To break the stranglehold of avoidance and obsession, and combat the paralyzing effects of compulsions, clients need to learn the central roles of the amygdala and cortex pathways to empower them to confront their OCD, rather than let it direct their lives. You will learn and practice strategies to explain brain-based techniques that give clients effective methods to retrain the OCD brain. You’ll explore how to:
The Nature of OCD
Teaching Clients Where Their Anxiety Comes From
Explaining the Amygdala in OCD Treatment
Exposure as Teaching the Amygdala
Neurologically-Informed Interventions for Cortex Pathway
