welcome to the all the hard things blog

Through mindfulness practices, along with Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), my clients have been able to break this cycle and develop a new relationship with their thoughts and emotions. Rather than trying to control or avoid them, they learn to accept them and observe them with curiosity and non-judgment. This shift in perspective allows them to approach their OCD symptoms with a sense of curiosity, rather than feeling overwhelmed and powerless.

Uncertainty can be a daunting experience for anyone, but for those struggling with OCD and anxiety, it can be particularly challenging. The feeling of not being in control and not knowing what may happen next can trigger intense anxiety and distress. But there are ways to sit with uncertainty and manage these feelings. In this blog post, we’ll explore some practical strategies for sitting with uncertainty and regaining a sense of calm.
