Workshop Description:
Exposure and response prevention (ERP) is a highly efficacious form of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). In an attempt to simplify treatment, this workshop will focus on the core component of ERP - therapeutic in vivo exposure and prevention of compulsive behaviors - with an emphasis on the principles of change that underlie exposure. Attendees will learn to assess OCD and associated symptoms, develop cognitive-behavioral case conceptualizations, prepare flexible ERP treatment plans, and execute said plans with OCD patients. Attendees will end the workshop by reviewing case examples and practicing the development of ERP treatment plans.
