NSU Offering First Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Support Group, Oct. 17

NSU’s Anxiety Treatment Center and OCD and Related Disorders Clinic; individuals with OCD and their family members is offering a free support group meeting on Thursday, Oct. 17 from 8-9 p.m. in the Maltz Building, room 2055.

While OCD tends to be associated with aspects made popular in TV and movies (i.e. germ-phobia, need for symmetry) there are other, more debilitating forms of the disorder. This first-annual support group meeting is open to those with all forms of OCD and their families to allow them to discuss their needs and interact with others living with OCD. In addition, attendees will have the opportunity to talk with OCD experts, including Jedidiah Siev, Ph.D., an assistant professor and director of NSU’s Anxiety Treatment Center and the OCD and Related Disorders Clinic.

For more information, individuals can call 954-262-5822.
