E/RP is an effective form of therapy in the treatment of OCD and phobias.
Mindfulness is an attitude in which people pay purposeful attention to the present moment in specific, non-judgmental ways. Mindfulness training involves learning de-centering skills in which people come to realize that thoughts are just thoughts and not fully representative of one's reality.
Positive Psychology focuses not only on solving a person's problems and eliminating symptoms but also on using their strengths in order to improve their quality of life. Techniques of positive psychology not only help a person feel better but also promote psychological flexibility and resiliancy which foster strength and growth in the individual for the future.
