What does it really mean to get your life back from OCD? In this video, Paige DeAngelo and therapist Julia Hale, LICSW, share the moments that made them realize that OCD was stealing their time, presence, and joy—and how exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy helped them reclaim their lives.

Paige opens up about losing her college years to rumination and shame, and how starting ERP was the day she began taking her life back. Julia shares her experience with postpartum OCD, how she looked “fine” on the outside while feeling consumed by fear on the inside, and the grief of missing memories from her baby’s first year.

As Paige and Julia share, ERP therapy isn’t just for times of crisis—it’s for anyone who wants to stop missing out on their own life.
