Proud of the work that we are doing here at NOCD to rid people of the suffering caused by OCD.
@NOCD Therapist - Dr. Patrick M. I’ve been working on ERP for a few months, but I can’t tell if it’s improving because of my depression?
Actually, it's my understanding that ERP licenses are according to state, and that you can only work with someone while you're living or visiting that state. Maybe international clients are different...
Some therapists are licensed in more than one state. They can only treat someone that is in the state that they are licensed in.
Yes we have therapists licensed in all 50 States. For example, I live in Florida and see members in New Zealand, United Kingdom, and Australia as well. As long as the therapist is licensed in the State you reside in you are good. Please reach out if you would like more information.
Hi there Clint - can you advise if my son would need a certain therapist for his particular ‘brand’ of OCD; that is so rove who has the particular knowledge to deal with his issues? Thank you ☺️
Meant to read - someone who has …
@OCD35boo Nope! All OCD is about certainty and ERP will address that.
So i can live in Arizona and see a therapist in Washington?
Therapists are licenses state to state- so it would need to be a therapist licensed in the state that you are in at the time of services- it may be that you find one that is licensed in both states. Your best bet is to look at our website at which therapists are licensed in which states.

They do!
@Veronica_ Of course not.
@Perpetual I’m personally located across the atlantic from my therapist lol 😆
The article talks about nocd treating root cause of ocd, can someone tell me what is excatly a root cause of ocd, is it underlying anxiety or something else
I would like to know that as well. I hope someone touches on this.
People suspect it’s a hereditary hormonal dysfunction (hence why medication is often quite effective), but further details are unknown as far as I can tell.
@Perpetual :)
@IAmGoingToOvercomeOCD Yah me too.
:)
Wow!! Amazing! As a NOCD patient, was I included in this study? Was everyone enrolled studied?
How would erp work for real event ocd ? I mean how would exposers work for things that have actually happened?
Indeed it is! Thank you NOCD!
How does the virtual support groups work? Is this a zoom session? Unlike in personal support groups, i feel like there fact that I have to be seen in video to other participants takes a way some of the privacy as it’s hosted via the web.

I just want it to go away or learn how to deal with it better
Hmm 🤨 not sure.
