In episode 506 I chat with Dr Sam Greenblatt. Sam is a licensed clinical psychologist.
We discuss an update on him, relationship OCD (ROCD) using his personal story as a case study, improving ROCD treatment, exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP), internal family systems (IFS) therapy, working with other emotions around ROCD, feeling emotions without analysing them, improving relationships, and much more. Hope it helps.
