In this episode, Carrie welcomes fellow therapist Heather Vignali to share her personal journey with OCD, including how symptoms emerged during a major life transition—and how ICBT, EMDR, and her Christian faith played a role in her healing.
Episode Highlights:
The ways OCD impacted Heather’s life, including obsessive safety concerns and compulsive monitoring of her daughter.
What “anxiety tongue” is and how somatic symptoms can signal deeper mental health struggles.
How Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT) helped Heather understand the root of her intrusive thoughts through concepts like the Feared Possible Self.
Ways EMDR and other integrative therapies can support healing when trauma and OCD intersect.
How OCD can impact faith, and how to navigate scrupulosity while reconnecting with spiritual truth.
