In episode 384 I chat with Dr Steven Phillipson. Steven is a licensed clinical psychologist who specializes in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for OCD. Steven is the Clinical Director at the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy in New York.

We discuss what it means to live within the variability of being human, being authentic, being centred, autonomy, assertiveness, and why this can all be important in OCD therapy, and much more. Hope it helps.
