MomWithOCDSon

I have emailed you previously, but wanted to ask how your son responded to therapy when starting. My son has worked with therapists who specialize in anxiety/OCD and has struggled previously with the ERP portion so we have backed down to ACT therapy with our current therapist. However, my son fails to consistently apply any tools learned to the OCD thoughts. Therefore, I feel like it is misty a waste. How did your son stay engaged in therapy and learn to apply the strategies?  I want him to not be consumed by the compulsions, but he does not seem to have the motivation to work at reducing them.
