After addressing these common myths\, the talk will then provide attendees with strategies for building motivation around OCD treatment. If you are struggling with motivation in your own recovery\, you will not want to miss this presentation! Additionally\, this presentation will enable family members\, loved ones\, and caregivers to support their loved one while they implement these tools to make it more likely the sufferer in their life to build motivation.
