On-demand trainings for therapists wanting to learn more about OCD and relevant therapies.
ACT and Compassion Skills for ERP and OCD Recovery
2.5 hour training - £60 (6 months access)
For therapists experienced in OCD/ERP/CBT, this 2.5-hour workshop introduces ACT and compassion-focused skills to address common challenges like rumination, emotional overwhelm, shame, and resistance.
Learn a progression of ACT tools to support ERP, increase motivation through values and self-compassion, and help clients engage more effectively.
The session includes practical exercises (e.g., dropping anchor, urge surfing), troubleshooting barriers, and applying Values-Based ERP.
You'll also explore how to use client feedback to guide interventions and ensure ACT skills enhance values rather than become compulsive. Ideal for clinicians ready to deepen and refine their ERP approach.
Working safely with OCD
3 hour training - £60 (6 months access)
Are you a humanistic, psychodynamic, integrative counsellor, psychologist, or psychotherapist outside of a CBT framework but want to support clients with OCD without exacerbating symptoms? Working Safely with OCD is a unique training designed for therapists like you who want to understand OCD’s complexities while keeping clients safe.
While ERP is the “gold standard” for OCD, clients often need additional support—they may not be ready for ERP, are already working on emotional issues with you, or have had CBT before. This training fills that gap, equipping you to work safely with OCD in your current approach to not make symptoms worse.
This training will empower you to:
Recognise OCD patterns and subtypes
Provide supportive, informed care until clients are ready for ERP or specialised treatment
Support your clients with confidence and compassion. Join us to work safely with OCD, tailored to your therapeutic approach.
Functional Analytic Psychotherapy for OCD Training
1.5 hour training - £50 (6 months access)
This is a rare training on FAP for OCD. We are pleased to offer it to you.
This Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP) for OCD Training is a 1 hour 40 minute training, edited down from a 4 hours original training that included actual client footage (now edited out for confidentiality). This training is designed for qualified and trainee counselors, psychotherapists, and psychologists experienced in working with OCD, this training explores the integration of FAP in OCD treatment.
Evidence-based therapy is shifting from treatment protocols (e.g., ERP for OCD) to a more sophisticated integration of evidence-based treatment methods tailored to the needs of individual clients. Therapies like ERP and ACT are widely used for OCD, but these therapies view OCD through intra-personal factors (obsessions, rituals, avoidance) rather than interpersonal factors (emotional awareness, authentic self-expression, observing one’s impact on others). A growing number of seasoned, evidence-based clinicians are addressing how interpersonal factors contribute to OCD.
The workshop is led by experienced OCD clinicians, Nate Gruner, LICSW, and Meaghan Cleary, LMHC, both affiliated with McLean Hospital OCD Institute.
