This week on the Self Care Unit, we learned about OCD with Dr. Francine Baffa. Dr. Baffa is one of Operation Happy Nurse's Licensed Clinical Social Workers, she focuses her work on evidence-based treatments to tackle anxiety and worry. She helps us dispel some of the common misconceptions about OCD and talks us through how compulsions work. She also explains what evidence-based treatments exist and ways to manage OCD after diagnosis. OHN founder Shannon steps in to cohost this episode, as she lives with OCD herself, sharing her experiences with it as a nurse and how concerns for safety and care can manifest as compulsions. We hope this conversation brings light on to an often misunderstood topic and provides some support to anyone with OCD.
