If you have obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), you may suffer from obsessive thoughts, fears, and anxiety. You know, more than anyone, how debilitating this condition can be. But you may also be reluctant to start treatment due to fear, stigma, and misconceptions regarding therap -particularly exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy. You may think of a number of reasons not to go, or to drop out, but if you are committed to getting better, you need to take that important step toward healing.

This book will demystify treatment for OCD so that you can stop being afraid, and start changing your life. And if you are a therapist dealing with treatment resistance in your clients, this book makes for wonderful suggested reading to help get them back into therapy.
