Dr. Tara Egan - host
Melissa Franz  - guest expert

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can have a significant impact on a person's daily life, including their ability to work, socialize, attend school, and perform everyday tasks. Many individuals do not know that OCD is far more vast than needing things organized and clean.

As you can imagine, there are many misunderstandings about OCD, how it presents itself, and how it impacts one's life. That is why, on today's episode, we welcome Melissa Franz, MSW, LCSWA, the newest member of the Egan Counseling & Consulting team.  Melissa has many special talents, as you will find out, but one of them is supporting individuals with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD).

Tune in as Tara and Melissa discuss OCD, the symptoms, the misconceptions, how it can affect areas of one's life, and some forms of treatment.
