DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE!\nFREE: 3 IDFPR CEU for LSW/LCSW\, LPC/LCPC\, Psychologists\, and IAODAPCA (Pending) \n  \nSUMMARY\n \nThis 3-hour training provides a practical\, clinically grounded overview of OCD\, including how it presents across subtypes\, how to differentiate it from other conditions\, and how to identify when referral for specialized treatment is appropriate. \nThe training is designed to help providers feel more confident recognizing OCD in its less obvious forms\, and to better understand the treatment approaches that lead to meaningful change. \nThe goals are to increase provider confidence in identifying OCD across a range of presentations\, improve differentiation between OCD\, anxiety\, and related conditions\, and to support more accurate and timely referrals for evidence-based treatment. \nOBJECTIVES \nParticipants will be able to: \n\nIdentify core features of OCD\, including intrusive thoughts\, compulsions\, and the anxiety-compulsion cycle\nRecognize common OCD subtypes (e.g.\, harm\, relationship\, contamination\, existential\, “pure O”)\nDifferentiate OCD from generalized anxiety\, trauma-related rumination\, and other overlapping presentations\nUnderstand the principles of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and why it is the gold standard treatment\nIdentify when a referral for specialized OCD treatment is appropriate\n\nPRESENTER \nLaura Miller\, LCPC\, R-DMT\, is a licensed clinical therapist\, private practice owner\, and group facilitator specializing in OCD and anxiety. She uses evidence-based approaches\, including Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)\, to help clients break free from cycles of overthinking\, fear\, and self-doubt. \nLaura is known for her structured\, practical approach and her ability to make complex patterns feel understandable and actionable.
