When someone with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) also has food allergies (or is a caregiver to someone with food allergies) the food allergies can become a focus for the OCD symptoms. In typical OCD treatment obsessions are often addressed with Exposure Response Prevention (ERP). ERP involves the person putting themselves in triggering situations so that they can practice tolerating the distress without the use of their compulsions. However, food allergy management requires a person to avoid their allergens in order to stay safe. This lecture will help clinicians understand the basics of both food allergy management and Exposure Response Prevention as well as how to modify ERP to accommodate OCD symptoms around food allergies in a safe and effective way. Participants will also learn more about the ways that these two conditions can interact so they can successfully support clients struggling with this particular manifestation of OCD symptoms.
