#23 OCD
from Paradox Outta Da Box Hosted by nsobel19
Therapists agree that underlying anxiety is at the core of OCD. Underlying abandonment and fear of isolation often cause a person to form an OCD behavior that attempts to soothe the anxiety. However such OCD behavior can be debilitating as it can affect relationships with family and work partners. In this video we discuss how emboldening the therapeutic alliance is a way to help the client feel accepted. By working on the alliance we hope to influence the client to 'organically' relax, thereby reducing their compulsion or need to engage in OCD behavior.
