The treatment for Homosexual OCD/Sexual Orientation OCD can be really tough. Let's go over what the treatment looks like for HOCD/SOOCD. Many believe that someone who struggles with this is just in denial. This can exacerbate symptoms. I want us to change this perception and the evidenced-based treatment for this subset of OCD. ⠀

The following topics are covered:⠀

👉What is HOCD or Sexual Orientation OCD?⠀

👉How to use exposure and response prevention for HOCD.⠀

👉An example of an exposure hierarchy for HOCD.⠀

👉Examples of how to do an exposure for HOCD.⠀

👉Medications for HOCD⠀⠀

As always, bloopers/mess ups at the end to show that none of us are perfect and never will be.⠀⠀⠀
