About this book
Internal Family Systems Therapy for OCD offers a groundbreaking integration of the compassionate, parts-based IFS approach with evidence-based OCD treatments.
This innovative guide introduces IFS for OCD and demonstrates Self-led Exposure and Response Prevention (Self-led ERP), a unique approach that maintains therapeutic effectiveness of treatments that work while enhancing client engagement and facilitating enduring recovery. This approach helps clients develop healing relationships with the protective parts driving the obsessions and compulsions that perpetuate OCD. Through detailed case examples and practical techniques, clinicians learn to help clients access their inherent self-leadership, transform their relationship with uncertainty and fear, and achieve not just symptom reduction but internal balance, harmony and perspective. This vital resource bridges the gap between relational psychotherapy and behavioral interventions, offering hope for clients who haven't fully responded to conventional treatments.
This invaluable book is essential reading for family therapists and clinical psychologists who are interested in IFS and treat clients with OCD and other anxiety disorders.
