In this episode Robert James explains why exposure and response prevention (ERP) is powerful but not the only path to managing OCD. He explores how approaches from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, self-compassion and values work can scaffold ERP, help with intrusive thoughts, rumination and daily triggers, and widen your focus back to the things that matter.

He also shares practical metaphors (like the spotlight and stage), signature signs to notice when you’re triggered, and mentions a 12-week program for those seeking extra support
