What the course will cover
What's happening
The OCD loop in pregnancy and early parenthood, and why the thoughts can feel so loud.
What keeps it going
Checking, avoiding, asking for reassurance and confessing, and why they make so much sense.
Small steps, and support
Gentle steps from CBT and ERP, and where to find more support when you need it.
Where shall I let you know?
About me

Hi, I'm Charlotte. I'm a BABCP-accredited CBT therapist and EMDR practitioner, and I specialise in OCD. I worked in the NHS before setting up my private practice, and I'm a mum of two.
I'm also a Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Champion, and I'm making this course because so many parents carry these thoughts on their own. Join the waitlist and you'll hear first when it opens, with a founding price just for the waitlist.
