Synopsis

ERP Therapy for Relationship OCD (ROCD): The Complete Guide to Breaking Free from Relationship Doubt Using Exposure and Response Prevention

Struggling with endless questions like “Am I really in love?” or “Is this relationship right for me?” You’re not alone—and more importantly, you’re not broken. Relationship OCD (ROCD) is a misunderstood form of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder that causes persistent, unwanted doubts about your romantic relationship.

This practical, research-backed guide offers the gold-standard treatment for ROCD: Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Written by therapists Audrey Mami Franklin and Amy Donna Walters, this book takes you step-by-step through what ROCD is, why it happens, and how to finally stop the cycle of obsessive thinking and compulsive reassurance-seeking.

Inside, you’ll find:

• Clear explanations of ROCD’s symptoms and brain patterns

• ERP worksheets, scripts, and real-life examples

• Tools for self-focused, partner-focused, and relationship-focused ROCD

• Mindfulness techniques for managing anxiety

• A complete ERP hierarchy builder

• Guidance for partners and relapse prevention

Ideal for individuals, clinicians, and loved ones, this book breaks the silence around ROCD and offers a structured roadmap to regain your peace of mind and rebuild genuine connection—without chasing impossible certainty.

Take control of your thoughts, restore your relationships, and learn how to live with uncertainty—without letting it run your life.
