266: Understanding OCD & Exposure Response Prevention - with Jenna Overbaugh, Licensed Professional Counselor


Listen Later

Jenna Overbaugh is a licensed counselor specializing in OCD, anxiety, and related conditions since 2008. With lived experience and expertise in treating some of the most severe OCD and anxiety cases, she now creates self-help resources and digital products for those dealing with intrusive thoughts. She’s also the host of All the Hard Things podcast, where she empowers listeners to break free from fear and reclaim their lives.

In this episode, we dive into the complexities of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). We explore common misconceptions on OCD and shed light on the true impact it has on those who live with it. We discuss the difference between myths and reality, unpacking what OCD really looks like and how it affects daily life.

Jenna and I both share our personal experiences as mental health professionals living with OCD. We also explore different treatment options, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). We also dive deep into the importance of sitting with discomfort and how this practice can help individuals regain control over their thoughts and behaviors.
