If you’re looking for Biblical teachings on how to overcome religious OCD (aka scrupulosity), you’re in the right place. I’m a follower of Jesus Christ and I’ve struggled with religious OCD myself. I have three degrees in theological specializations, so I approach this topic purely from a spiritual perspective, but I recognize that religious OCD has a considerable amount of overlap between spirituality and psychology. While I support and strongly recommend medical/psychological interventions, it is outside the scope of my expertise to offer psychological counseling of any kind. The information provided on my channel is not intended to be used as a substitute for professional diagnosis and treatment, but rather for educational and informational purposes only.

A lot of that sounds damaging for OCD patients. It might legitimize thoughts and make it worse? Cause reassurance and alot of answer seeking and dependancy on a therapist. Just my opinion. If it works then good for you. Hope it does. Not for me though

Great info. I have found EMDR as a great adjunct therapy along with ERP for my OCD

@AprilTedrow-fo4qn

This reminds me so much of teachings from Mark DeJesus!

Amazing interview - I’ve been looking for other clinicians who get it and understand that the psychodynamic approach can help patients achieve longer lasting results by addressing the root of the issue not just the symptoms 🙌🏼

Dr Greenberg is using the word community to describe a network. It's common for people to do this, but in this instance it's an important distinction. The criticisms he has are common pitfalls in network culture. A network culture is task-focused, i.e. people interact in relation to a specific topic. A community is more geographical, i.e. babysitting your neighbour's kids. Anxious folks tend to prefer network culture because it's easier to focus on a specific topic during interactions. These topics get idealised, and it's difficult to really challenge them. It's cool that Dr Greenberg has been doing this, I hope he manages to keep going. There is so much rich information waiting to be incorporated into clinical psychology. Often what you see happen (e.g. with ACT) is they start of kind of interesting and then get trapped in their own network.
