In part two of our sessions with Bob, I continue my work to help him build the courage to face what he fears most. Bob’s anxiety stems from a deep need to avoid getting “stuck” in spiraling thoughts. But what if the path to freedom lies in doing the exact opposite?

In this second session, I call on Bob’s natural resilience. I teach him to actively approach anxiety-provoking situations, using powerful analogies that reframe the fear and energize the fight.

By the end of this session, you’ll see a noticeable shift: Bob begins to take control—not by eliminating anxiety, but by changing his relationship to it.

👉 Watch the transformation unfold.

This video is a sample from Advanced Cognitive Behavioral Interventions for OCD (https://anxieties.com/professional-courses/advanced-cognitive-behavioral-interventions-for-ocd-3-video-series/), presented by Psychotherapy.net, which offers over eight hours of videos containing clinical sessions with real clients, demonstrating interventions, exercises, and concrete strategies to help you work effectively with your clients.

I'd like to share this 2.5-minute video clip with you. It’s part of a rare, real-time look at the principles of exposure therapy that can help mental health professionals looking to deepen their understanding of treating claustrophobia, panic, and avoidance behavior. Here you’ll see how you might conduct and then debrief an interoceptive exposure to suffocation.

In the full video, you'll observe me guiding a client, Mary—an avid traveler who struggles with intense claustrophobia—through two transformative therapy sessions. Mary’s fear of suffocation and entrapment extends beyond flying; she avoids elevators, parking structures, and any environment that feels inescapable. When avoidance isn’t an option, she battles severe panic attacks.

Through carefully structured cognitive and behavioral experiments, I help Mary confront these fears head-on. From breathing through a nose plug, to sealing her head inside a pillowcase, and even stepping into a sealed cardboard box, Mary engages in powerful exposure exercises designed to reframe her experience of fear.

Step by step, she moves from “I can’t handle this” to “I want this fear—and I can handle it.”

OCD can be debilitating and defeating. It interrupts our daily lives, intrudes on our activities, and ensures we are acutely aware of its presence.

But it doesn’t have to be this way.

I’m Dr. Reid Wilson, and I’m a clinical psychologist. I've spent my career treating anxiety and OCD, and developing strategies and tactics for people living with OCD.

I have created a self-help online program to guide sufferers of OCD through new strategies—less painful strategies—to assert control over the disorder.

OCD & the 6-Moment Game: Strategies & Tactics is a 4-hour video series that offers easy and safe tactics to win over OCD moment-by-moment. It retrains the brain to adapt to challenges, and modifies thoughts, feelings, and actions.

The course is self-paced and can be streamed via mobile device or downloaded to a computer for lifetime access.

Participants will receive an e-book containing the transcript of the video series, as well as a comprehensive workbook to reinforce important topics.

I want OCD sufferers to get their minds back...to get their lives back.
