Exposure And Response Prevention (ERP) Record – Single Exposure

Exposure and response prevention (ERP) is an effective treatment for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). It involves deliberately facing situations, thoughts, or images that trigger your OCD (exposure) while resisting the urge to carry out compulsions (response prevention).

This worksheet is designed to guide you through single ERP exercises. It will help you plan what you will do, carry out exposure, and reflect on what you’ve learned. By staying with the situation and not using compulsions, you can learn that anxiety reduces on its own and you can cope without relying on compulsions.

Overview

Exposure and response prevention is an effective treatment for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). This worksheet guides clients through each stage of ERP, from planning an exposure exercise to reflecting on their learning afterwards.
