This group hosted by Student Health Services is for students struggling with OCD, obsessions and/or compulsions. The group will focus on providing psychoeducation, building skills and creating a safe space for students to share strategies in navigating college and life with OCD-related challenges. Topics of discussion will include ways to manage intrusive thoughts, an introduction to Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), and ways to address body-focused repetitive behaviors (BFRBs), such as skin-picking and hair-pulling. Students are encouraged to practice these skills and apply them between group sessions.
