Why read it?

2 authors picked The Self-Compassion Workbook for OCD as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love this book because Kim Quinlan takes a somewhat nebulous concept and explains it in very practical and engaging terms. People struggling to overcome OCD often wind up beating themselves up and treating themselves very un-kindly, making a difficult situation even more difficult. Kimberley strikes many chords in this book in the way she explains why being kind and compassionate to yourself is so important when working to overcome OCD. She doesn’t stop there. She offers many excellent, practical ways that one can explore and practice self-compassion. A must-read for anyone dealing with OCD.

If you’re looking for an insightful step-by-step action plan to help overcome OCD or anxiety disorder and all the unwanted struggles that come with them, this is the book to read. Kimberely is extremely knowledgeable in this space and what this book offers that many don’t, are actionable tools and techniques that you can implement straight away.
