Perinatal Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a frequently misunderstood condition that can be challenging for clinicians to recognize and differentiate from other perinatal mental health concerns. This training provides counselors and social workers with a practical foundation for understanding, assessing, and treating OCD during pregnancy and the postpartum period.
Participants will learn to recognize the core features of perinatal OCD, various subtypes, and distinguish OCD from other new parent worries. The training will also introduce Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), the gold standard behavioral treatment for OCD, and provide case examples for implementing ERP for the perinatal population, including example hierarchies. This training is for mental health professionals. It’s ideal for clinicians who are newer to working with OCD or perinatal mental health.
