Guest guest Posted December 5, 2011 Report Share Posted December 5, 2011 ERP stands for Exposure & Response Prevention. Though some places I read will say the R is for ritual, but it's the same thing. Therapy for OCD is done with CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). CBT is used for lots of different mental illnesses so many therapists will say they know CBT. But you really need one that is experienced with treating OCD. ERP is part of the CBT when treating OCD. Sooo...you might ask a potential therapist if they do CBT with ERP for OCD! Hope this helps, feel free to ask for more details about any of it! > > I'm new to all of this.
