Through definition, case example, and a remarkable ease to read, Free Yourself from OCD will teach you, guide you, and bring you to a place where you are ready to take those first necessary steps to challenge your OCD." --Patrick B. McGrath, PhD and Head of Clinical Services, NOCD"The fundamental processes of overcoming OCD are consistent and well-established: you face your obsessions and resist engaging in compulsions; however, this process is not as simple as it sounds. Dr. Lakins book does a solid job acknowledging the challenges that come in the process of managing OCD, the necessary skills to make a turn, the importance of returning to ones values, and most importantly, how to move forward as life unfolds. This book will certainly help a reader to take actionable steps, build momentum, and get unstuck from OCD!" --Patricia E. Zurita Ona, Psy.D., Author, and Founder of ACT beyond OCD online classes"This book offers a refreshing, practical, and hands-on guide to understanding obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and how to break free from its grip. As knowledge in our field expands to help OCD sufferers, it often leads to confusion for those seeking help. Dr. Lakin clarifies how exposure and response prevention (ERP), the gold standard of treatment for OCD, works and how it is enhanced by mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). His clinical experience shines as he guides readers through the process of actively seeking out obsessions with openness and curiosity rather than engaging in resistance and avoidance. He asks thoughtful and motivating questions while providing concrete behavioral strategies to break free from vicious OCD cycles. This book has a lot to offer! It is concise, informative, and a fabulous introduction to understanding OCD and engaging in the treatment journey." --Joan Davidson, Ph.D., Co-Director and Founding Partner of San Francisco Bay Area Center for Cognitive Therapy Review Quote "OCD is all about doubt, and it can keep you stuck for decades if you let it.
