Exposure Response and Prevention (ERP)

Exposure and Response Prevention is an evidence based modality that has been shown to reduce symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder by 40% in as little as 8 sessions.  This form of therapy encourages you to voluntarily face your fears and let obsessive thoughts occur over and over again without 'putting them right' or 'neutralizing' them with compulsions.  You will work collaboratively with your ERP trained therapist to identify a hierarchy of fears and slowly, confidently come to a place where those intrusive thoughts are not longer associated with fear.

The therapy in a nutshell:
