A foundational yet friendly and warm OCD handbook for thriving with spiraling thoughts—complete with the practical tools to navigate the way out

Most people think OCD and intrusive thoughts are about a select few people who obsess over handwashing, germs, or needing everything to be “just right”. Making Peace with a Noisy Mind reveals the complexities of these uninvited thoughts as well as how common they actually are. With a rare combination of wisdom and wit, OCD and anxiety therapist Jenna Overbaugh LPC reveals the tools that have helped her clients reclaim their lives.

Jenna draws on her wisdom gained from years at Johns Hopkins and the renowned Rogers Memorial Hospital residential treatment center, as well as stories from her own personal experiences with OCD, to share:

  • Practical exercises for breaking thought spirals, resisting compulsions, and getting comfortable with uncertainty
  • How to build a sustainable way of responding to fear that restores your agency and trust in yourself
  • Myth-busting on the limits of talk therapy, overly identifying on your OCD subtype, and focusing on the compulsion instead of their root cause
  • OCD-specific strategies for navigating everyday life and routines

This is the OCD book you’ve been waiting for. With the voice of a friend and the advice of an expert as well as illustrations and exercises throughout, Making Peace with a Noisy Mind delivers a way out of the endless loop of intrusive thoughts.
