Central Ohio Goals | Mental Health America Of Franklin County

Central Ohio GOALS (Giving those with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Another Lifestyle) for OCD is a peer-support group facilitated by Dr. Beth McCreary. The GOALS model for support groups addressing OCD started in Philadelphia in 1981 by Jonathan Grayson and Gayle Frankel. Each meeting includes time for each attendee to share, if they wish, about their own symptoms and struggles. The intent is for everyone to leave with a sense of connection and—ideally—some new coping strategies.
