A new Executive Order assesses the use of some medications prescribed to young people, including SSRIs, raising concerns about potential restrictions on these essential treatments. For children and teens with OCD, SSRIs are a critical, evidence-based option that helps them manage symptoms and fully participate in therapy, school, and daily life. Limiting access could have serious consequences for those who rely on them. We urge you to contact your legislators and ask them to protect access to effective OCD treatment.

Today the @councilofdc had its Final Reading and passed the Counseling Compact! Next it's on to DC @MayorBowser for her signature. Assuming she signs, the bill will undergo Congressional Review. If Congress approves, it will become law. @ACACounselors counselingcompact.org/

Pleased to announce a 3-hr workshop on Inference-Based CBT for OCD at the Maryland Psychological Association’s annual convention.

"So I have ADD I have #OCD...But I think I'm well-adjusted because I obsess on things but I don't have the attention span to stick with it and I quickly forget what I was obsessing about in the first place."- @EllenDeGeneres-This language is harmful. STOP. fox5atlanta.com/news/ellen-d…

Second time's a charm! Today I passed the California Law & Ethics exam, my last hurdle to getting licensed in CA! This was entirely due to Dr. Ben Caldwell's training (@HighPassEdu) which was helpful in so many ways. I'd recommend it to anyone who has to suffer through this exam
