OCD Educational Lunch Hour
Presented by: Karen Hebert, Ph.D.
The Hudson Valley Center for Cognitive Therapy (HVCCT) is pleased to host an educational lunch hour for spouses, partners, parents, family, or friends of people who have been diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). OCD can be difficult for loved ones to understand and even more challenging to know how to help. As one of the most commonly misunderstood disorders, OCD can be quite complicated and can manifest in different ways. This educational meeting is intended to offer information so that loved ones can provide the kind of support that is integral to successful OCD treatment.
This lunch hour will provide participants with a thorough overview of OCD including:
- Symptoms
- Treatment
- How to Better Understand OCD
- How Family and Friends Can Help
As well as
- Time for Questions and Answers
