Here’s a typical session at our Anxiety Disorders/OCD IOP.

The first two hours of the group consist of individualized exposure and response prevention (ERP) activities. ERP is the gold standard for OCD and social anxiety treatment. Clients will learn how to face their fears in order to live a more valued life. These activities are challenging and fun ways to overcome fears.
 
The last hour is for skills. We focus on specific DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) skills, emphasizing acceptance of uncertainty, understanding their values, and learning to manage their anxiety symptoms.
 
 We help adolescents understand that life can be difficult and once they accept this, they can start to view problems as challenges rather than setbacks. This can loosen the grip of anxiety and lead to a more freedom-filled and productive life.
