As a mentally ill hot girl who has struggled with unrealistic beauty standards since the womb and could use a (theoretical but maybe literal) lobotomy, therapist and author Alegra Kastens intertwines her clinical wisdom and lived experience to gab about books of all genres. Not a bookworm? Have no fear (or do because #anxiety): she has done the reading for you. All you have to do is tune in, Lobotomommies!

OCD and Substance Use Disorders (w/ Dr. Patrick B. McGrath)

Dr. Patrick B. McGrath, a Licensed Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of OCD treatment experience, joins Alegra to talk about the intersection of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Substance Use Disorders (SUD). It’s an important conversation and one that is not had enough given the prevalence of these co-occurring conditions. Studies have shown that about 25% of people with OCD also live with a substance use disorder.

Dr. Patrick McGrath discusses the relationship between OCD and substance use disorders, treating both conditions concurrently, barriers people with co-occurring OCD & SUD face, and more.
