Your exposures should be meaningful and in line with what you want to be able to do with your life.

If you’re a parent of young children you will likely have to touch public changing stations as part of your life, so your exposures should reflect that.

There are a lot of similarities between OCD and worry such as unwanted thoughts and a preoccupation with the thoughts that distracts us from the rest of the world.

One thing makes them different and the difference impacts what we’ll do in therapy.

As a therapist, I believe when it comes to OCD treatment you have to DO instead of TELL. So I choose to touch gross, dirty things and help people by showing them how to do exposures, even if it’s gross.

Why am I touching a toilet seat?

Exposure therapy, the gold standard intervention for OCD, is about approaching, instead of avoiding, the feared trigger. Exposure therapy is most effective when it’s used to show the brain that the trigger is not as dangerous as the brain says it is.

I touch gross, dirty things and help people by showing them how to do exposures, even if it’s gross.
