How The Right OCD Treatment Can Rewire Your Brain

from Get to know OCD

Did you know the correct kind of OCD treatment doesn’t just change how you feel, it can actually change how your brain responds to fear. Yes, it's true and in this video, Dr. Patrick McGrath explains why. This isn’t meant to be a science lesson, but rather a simple explanation of what’s happening in the brain when someone begins effective OCD treatment like exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP). As people learn to face intrusive thoughts and resist compulsions, the brain gradually recalibrates its threat response, helping them react differently to anxiety and regain control over their lives.At NOCD, we specialize in exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP), the most effective treatment for OCD—a treatment that can help you live a fulfilling life.
