Bull City Anxiety Clinical Training Series Presents:
ERP BASICS
NOW OFFERED AS A RECORDED TRAINING!
ERP Basics is a 6 CE intermediate level course for clinicians looking to learn the foundations of Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD. Clinicians will learn assessment and case conceptualization of OCD. The theoretical underpinning of ERP will be discussed and clinicians will learn skills to apply concepts and begin implementing ERP in practice. Originally conducted as a live, synchronous training, ERP Basics is now being offered as a recorded, asynchronous training in order to reduce cost and make it more accessible to clinicians interested in completing the training on their own schedule.
