Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy (ERP) is the “gold standard” of treatment for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in adolescents. A number of our therapists are highly trained in this specialized treatment. Parents and adolescents initially hear the word “exposure” and are worried treatment could be scary, but ERP allows adolescents to manage their fears, go at their own pace and feel successful right from the start. The “Response Prevention” part of ERP helps adolescents learn to comfortably control compulsions, avoidance and/or escape behaviors. Once adolescents have better control over their compulsions, their obsessive thinking naturally comes into balance.
