SUMMARY:Understanding OCD: Foundations\, Misconceptions\, and the Power of Exposure and Response Prevention
DESCRIPTION:Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a complex condition\, and our understanding of its presentation and treatment continues to evolve. This webinar provides an evidence-based overview of the foundations of OCD\, common clinical barriers to effective treatment\, and the rationale for Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) as the gold-standard intervention. We will examine how intrusive thoughts differ from typical worry\, why compulsions persist despite insight into their irrationality\, and how avoidance and reassurance-seeking maintain the OCD cycle. The session emphasizes a functional understanding of symptoms to guide effective intervention.

SUMMARY:Understanding OCD and Anxiety in Kids: How to Recognize and Support at Home
DESCRIPTION:Watching your child struggle with anxiety or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can feel confusing and overwhelming. This webinar is designed for parents\, caregivers\, and loved ones who want to better understand what these challenges look like in everyday life and how to support their child at home. You’ll learn how to recognize common signs and respond in ways that support your child’s growing independence and help reduce patterns that can unintentionally maintain anxiety\, while creating a home environment that reinforces treatment progress. The goal is to equip families with practical\, supportive strategies that align with evidence-based care.
