What's the Difference Between Postpartum OCD + Intrusive Thoughts
@treatmyocd
In this week's episode, women’s health expert and pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Marcy Crouch along with motherhood wellness expert Alyson Hempsey sit down with Dr. Mia Nuñez, a licensed clinical psychologist and leading expert when it comes to complex Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
Currently, Dr. Nuñez works as the West Regional Clinical Director at NOCD, the #1 telehealth provider for the treatment of OCD, where she closely helps to develop clinicians who can deliver exceptional ERP treatment and outcomes, while also providing an excellent customer experience for @treatmyocd members. OCD is one of the most severe, prevalent, and misunderstood mental health conditions.
Basically, Dr. Nuñez knows her stuff… and guess what? Even though she is an expert when it comes to OCD and has spent years treating patients with this disorder, even she suffered from postpartum OCD and intrusive thoughts. It happens to everyone, Mama.
Dr. Nuñez is here to share with us the difference between postpartum OCD and intrusive thoughts, what's considered normal, and when it’s time to speak to a professional.
