Many individuals associate OCD with cleanliness, but this widely held belief is misplaced.  Many people with OCD have no concerns about hygiene at all!  Our workshop covers the intricate nature of this mental health condition.  By delving into the nuances of OCD, you will discover how it is much more complex than the stereotypical perceptions commonly exhibited by the media.

Tailored for Your Needs: This training session typically lasts 2.5 to 3 hours, however it can be adjusted to align with your specific requirements and can be adapted to make it more relevant to your profession. Conducted in a classroom or online, the session promises an engaging and insightful experience.

Note: Participants will gain a deeper understanding of OCD, fostering empathy and creating a more supportive environment to help people manage their OCD more effectively. However, it is essential to note that this workshop does not authorize participants to diagnose, treat, or counsel individuals with OCD. Professional intervention is recommended for comprehensive treatment. Feel free to contact me if any participants wish to assess the suitability of this workshop beforehand.
