Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

The gold-standard treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). ERP helps you face anxiety-provoking thoughts or situations without engaging in compulsions—so you can reduce fear, regain control, and live more freely.

​

Core Principles:

• Exposure: Gradually confront thoughts, images, or situations that trigger anxiety.

• Response Prevention: Resist the urge to perform compulsions or avoidance behaviors.

• Habituation: Train your brain to tolerate discomfort and reduce anxiety over time.

​

Benefits of ERP:

• Feel empowered to interrupt compulsive cycles.

• Build confidence in your ability to handle uncertainty.

• Reclaim your time, energy, and peace of mind.
