Dr. Lauren Ladsworth has spent much of her career dedicated to the research and treatment of severe anxiety disorders, including OCD. She is the founding director of Genesee Valley Psychology, a clinic providing individual and group therapy. Her commitment to research goes beyond anxiety disorders, as she aims to become a more culturally competent clinician and researcher. Outside of the clinic, she offers training on Identities, Inclusion, and Diversity in Business and Academic settings through Twin Star Diversity Trainers.

In this episode we talk about: 

◾️ Increasing willingness and non-engagement in OCD ◾️ Dealing with OCD in “Jello Mode” ◾️ Connecting to other stories of recovery as a starting point
