How To Join Our Monthly, Family And Loved One’s OCD Support Group! This Support Group Is Free and Open To Anyone, Anywhere!

  • Chris Trondsen, M.S., AMFT, APCC
  • Tiffany Vicencio, LMFT

Our free, Family and Loved One’s OCD Support Group meets virtually, via Zoom, every second Saturday of the month from 11am to 1pm PST.

Pictured above are the two clinicians who facilitate the support group– Chris Trondsen, M.S., AMFT, APCC, and Tiffany Vicencio, LMFT.

To join our group, please email: info@OCDSoCal.org to be on the mailing list to receive the link each month. The support group email list is SEPARATE from our general OCD SoCal mailing list, so if you receive our general emails, please re-email us at info@OCDSoCal.org and ask to be on this support group’s email list.

The group offers education, resources, and support to family members and loved ones of an individual with OCD– and to the individual with the disorder as well.

It is led by two clinicians who treat OCD and a mother of a son with OCD.

The next meeting will be held on Saturday, November 13, 2021 and has been going strong for over 8 years!

Each month, the group starts off either with a family sharing their OCD success journey or with a presentation given by an OCD expert clinician. Following that presentation, the group is opened up for a Q&A segment with the presenter–and then once that concludes, we then allow group attendees to ask questions and receive support from other families in attendance.

November 13, 2021’s group will feature a more extensive and lengthy presentation from Kim Quinlan, LMFT.

We hope to see you there each second Saturday of the month at 11am to 1pm PST!
