IFS Consultation Group: Working with OCD and Highly Anxious Protectors
While obsessive-compulsive disorder is extremely treatable, is a notoriously difficult diagnosis that many clinicians struggle to work with effectively. Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is considered the standard for treating OCD, but many clients and therapists seek a more compassionate approach to treatment. As a Level 3 trained and Certified IFS clinician and the President of OCD SoCal, I have developed an integrative method to treat OCD and related disorders within a compassionate and non-pathologizing Internal Family Systems framework. This monthly IFS Consultation Group will:
-
- Increase your IFS skills and confidence when working with OCD
- Work with your own Therapist Parts to build more creativity, compassion, curiosity, and courage into your practice
- Build connections and gain feedback from other IFS clinicians and colleagues
- Improve competency in working with severe OCD and related disorders
- Experience and/or witness the model through role play practice with Melissa
- Get your IFS, OCD, and related questions answered by an expert in both domains
