“One of the beauties of mental health is that it does not discriminate.”
There’s a lot of conversation about Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), some real and some of it is just talk. But no matter where the conversation falls or the parties involved, OCD is a very real situation. It can take over your days, limit your existence, and have a profound impact on your overall quality of life.
My guest today is Amanda Petrik-Gardner. Amanda knows a lot about OCD, how to detect it, and most importantly, how to help victims build strategies to overcome it. Her practice spans the nation and over the course of her career, she’s seen, heard, and helped with it all. Today, she stops by to discuss OCD, debunk myths surrounding it, and talk to us about why the time has come for our world to begin opening up and getting real about our mental health.
OCD is real, but so are the treatments that help sufferers overcome it. If you’ve been diagnosed with OCD or any other condition that falls on the spectrum, this show is for you. If you think you may have this disorder, listen to it, make an appointment with a specialist, and boldly seek the help you deserve. This is an amazing conversation that focuses on a truly debilitating condition and one that will help you become your best version! Amanda Petrik-Gardner … today on Off the Cuff!
