170. OCD Is Not An Adjective, With Alegra Kastens

Marriage and Martinis

In several podcast episodes, Danielle has been very open about her struggles with OCD since she was diagnosed at 19-years-old. But on today's episode, she and Alegra talk about Obsessive Compulsive disorder in a raw, deep way that can only be done by two people who have suffered from the illness firsthand. Alegra is a therapist and expert in OCD with her own specialized practice in NYC, and runs the amazing instagram account and community @obsessivelyeverafter. The two talk all about the different types of OCD, how to be a good advocate, what REAL therapy looks like, and what parents can look for in their kids if they're concerned a child might be showing signs of OCD. Whether you suffer from OCD, know someone who does, or have always just wanted to better understand this illness, this is an episode you will not want to miss.
