Welcome to The Online Therapy Clinic. I’m Jaime — CBT & ERP therapist, EMDR practitioner, and Clinical Supervisor. In this video, we’re talking about habituation — the process of getting used to anxiety by staying with it, not running from it.🧠 Imagine standing on a bungee platform. Your heart races. You back out. Relief hits.But what happens when you repeat that pattern ten times?👉 The fear grows stronger.👉 The anxiety feels harder to face.👉 Your brain learns: “This is too much.”Now imagine you jump. You survive. You jump again. And again.By the tenth jump, you’re not terrified — you’re calm. Maybe even exhilarated.That’s habituation. That’s ERP therapy. That’s how recovery begins.💬 In this video, I’ll guide you through:• Why avoidance feels good short-term but keeps OCD alive• How habituation rewires your brain through repetition and courage• What it means to be willing — not fearless — in the face of discomfort• Why this approach works, even when it’s hard✨ This isn’t about pushing through pain. It’s about learning that you can survive it.And over time, you’ll feel less anxious. Less stuck. More free.🔔 Like, comment, and subscribe to support the channel and help others find this content.
