Today I talk with Dr. Jonathan Grayson is a licensed psychologist (PSY26643) and has been specializing in the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) for more than 40 years and is a nationally recognized expert. He was the first person in the nation to start an OCD support group, and he wrote the book Freedom From Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.

  • When someone is really unmotivated to implement ERP, is there anything they can do to get motivated again?
  • Lastly, what words of inspiration would you like to leave for our listeners?
