Parts Work and OCD - Free PDF Download

Empower your clients navigating OCD with the Parts Work and OCD Guide by Bronwyn Shroyer, MSW, LCSW. This resource helps therapists integrate parts work into OCD treatment, creating a nuanced, compassionate approach that honors the client’s experience.

Why This Guide is Essential: 

Understanding OCD as a process—not a defining trait—can be transformative for clients. This guide provides strategies to:

 • Use parts-based language that separates OCD from the client’s identity.

 • Acknowledge and validate the experiences of parts affected by OCD.

 • Address common fears, doubts, and resistance to letting go of compulsions.

What’s Inside: 

 • Client-Centered Language - Learn to shift from viewing OCD as a fixed part of self to recognizing it as an experience affecting certain parts.

 • Practical Examples - Explore sample statements and dialogues to help clients name and express their feelings about OCD.

 • Therapeutic Insights - Understand how parts work complements traditional OCD treatment modalities like ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention).

Who It’s For: 

This resource is ideal for therapists who:

 • Work with clients struggling with OCD and want to enhance their toolkit.

 • Use parts work in therapy and want to apply it effectively to OCD treatment.

 • Aim to foster greater self-compassion and resilience in their clients.

Help Clients Reclaim Their Identity: 

By separating OCD from the self, you’ll guide clients toward a clearer understanding of their experiences and greater confidence in their healing journey.
