OCD GOAL Support Group for Adults in Valencia

We’ve added another support group option for adults around Los Angeles (Valencia) that is offered by Licensed Psychologist Michelle Witkin. Modeled after the GOAL support group developed by Jonathan Grayson, Ph.D. and Gayle Frankel, this group is a place for OCD sufferers to meet others with OCD, find support and community, learn and share ideas, and develop behavioral goals to work on independently between meetings. To learn more about the GOAL group please click here.
