20 分钟Did you know that it takes between 7 and 14 years for someone to be correctly diagnosed with OCD?
What, how is this even possible?
But the truth is, it's similar for a lot of other anxiety conditions.
Hello, my name is Kimberly Quinlan.
I am on a mission.
to equip one million people with evidence-based anxiety skills.
And so today in this episode,
we are going to talk about how to build an exposure plan without a therapist and help you trouble the common,
you know, issues and concerns people have as they try to do this alone.
Now, in no way am I saying that you should do it alone.
If you need a therapist and you have access to a therapist by all means.
Having an ERP trained therapist is going to be so helpful.
But for those of you,
I know a lot of you either don't have the resources financially or access to someone who is skilled in this area.
So my mission again is to teach you as much as I can.
All right.
So let's get going first.
So what is an exposure plan?
I want to be really clear about something first.
When we say the word exposure plan or exposure therapy, that's technically not the right term.
