Erin Nghe, Founder and Clinical Director of OCD Set Free talks about what to expect when undergoing Exposure and Response Prevention therapy.
Just because you feel anxious in the midst of exposure practice, or after you've completed exposure practice...whether it's an hour later or a day later...it doesn't mean that the exposure practice hasn't worked.
It means that you've done something really amazing! You've moved towards the distress. You've faced your fears. Nothing is wrong! You haven't failed. The treatment is working!
