Presenter's Bio: Lucy Grantz, of Pivot Psychotherapy, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Minnesota specializing in therapy for teens and adults struggling with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Anxiety. She has lived experience with recovering from the grip of OCD and is subsequently committed to helping others. Lucy's OCD presentation appeared with primarily mental compulsions, and so this is a specific area of interest.

Currently, Lucy uses Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a preferred method to treat OCD. She finds the approach provides an enlightening "manual for the OCD brain", and has seen clients improve greatly. She attends several peer consultations and also consults with Frederick Aardema, one of the founders of I-CBT. 

Lucy brings to treatment a wealth of experience personally and as a therapist. She has a background in exploring Buddhism and mindfulness, which is beneficial for any therapeutic process. As an OCD provider, Lucy was trained in Exposure and Response Prevention through the Behavioral Therapy Training Institute. She also has experience treating OCD using Rumination-Focused CBT.

Workshop Description: This introductory training in Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is designed so that clinicians feel more competent in identifying this in their clients. OCD can be easily mistaken as trauma, general anxiety, and other diagnoses, which can lead to needless suffering.

Additionally, while Exposure and Response Prevention has been considered the unequaled “gold standard” for treatment, we now have other options for OCD, namely Inference-Based CBT. In this training I will provide an overview of this newer and very effective, evidence-based treatment approach.

Workshop Objectives:

  1. Increase ability to identify OCD in their clients, including the purely mental presentation of compulsions (nicknamed “Pure-O”)
  2. Increase understanding of the mechanism of OCD thought
  3. Learn about differential diagnoses
  4. Know treatments generally used in the US
  5. Gain insight into the newer treatment modality, Inference-Based CBT
