2 - 🎥 Where Does OCD Come From? Understanding OCD & Moving Forward

from A Mental Health and Wellbeing Podcast - CBT | EMDR and beyond · host Jaime G. Miralles

Welcome back to The Online Therapy Clinic. I’m Jaime — CBT & ERP therapist, Clinical Supervisor, Meta Supervisor, and EMDR practitioner. In this video, we’re diving into one of the most common questions people ask in therapy:👉 “Where did my OCD come from?”👉 “Why do I have it?”🧠 These questions are valid — and they come from a place of wanting clarity. But after years of working with individuals affected by OCD and supervising therapists delivering evidence-based treatments, I can tell you: there’s rarely a single, clear-cut answer.OCD often emerges from a complex mix of factors — genetics, personality traits, upbringing, environmental stressors, and learned behaviours. But here’s the key insight: understanding why you have OCD doesn’t necessarily help you recover from it.💬 In therapy, we shift the focus from “Why me?” to “What now?”✨ How can I live fully with OCD?✨ How can I move forward, aligned with my values?This video — and the entire series — is here to help you do just that. Drawing from years of clinical experience, I’ll guide you through practical, evidence-based strategies to break free from OCD and start living the life you want.🔔 Like, comment, and subscribe to support the channel and help others find this content.
