Episode Synopsis

It’s frustrating to spend time and money on therapy and feel like nothing is changing. For people with OCD, this happens all the time — often because the wrong therapy approach is being used, or because the real work isn’t happening outside of the sessions. In this video, Tracie Ibrahim shares her own story of being misdiagnosed as a child, learning why traditional therapy didn’t help, and how Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) finally gave her the tools to manage OCD in daily life. She explains why therapy isn’t about magic words or quick fixes, but about learning strategies you can practice every day to take your life back from OCD.At NOCD, we specialize in ERP therapy, the gold-standard treatment for OCD.
