It's normal that intrusive thoughts are about things that you consider “Bad” but just having a thought won't hurt you and it doesn't mean you're dangerous. Harm OCD is common.

You're not alone. In this video, we break down what these dangerous thoughts really mean, especially in the context of OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder) and anxiety. Harm OCD is the specific thoughts that you might hurt someone. You might think "I'm afraid I'm going to hurt my child". Learn the difference between intrusive thoughts and real desires, and why your brain targets the things you care most about. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), you'll discover practical tools like defusion, exposure, and how to stop doing safety behaviors that make negative thoughts stickier. These strategies help retrain your brain to see thoughts for what they are—just thoughts. If you're struggling with scary, unwanted thoughts and feel trapped in the OCD cycle, this video offers clarity, compassion, and a path forward. #IntrusiveThoughts #ocd Looking for affordable online counseling?

In therapy I use a combination of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Systems Theory, positive psychology, and a bio-psycho-social approach to treating mental illness and other challenges we all face in life. The ideas from my videos are frequently adapted from multiple sources. Many of them come from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, especially the work of Steven Hayes, Jason Luoma, and Russ Harris. The sections on stress and the mind-body connection derive from the work of Stephen Porges (the Polyvagal theory), Peter Levine (Somatic Experiencing) Francine Shapiro (EMDR), and Bessel Van Der Kolk. I also rely heavily on the work of the Arbinger Institute for my overall understanding of our ability to choose our life's direction.
