Mess it Up! Symmetry & "Just Right" ERP Game
GO POOP!™: Just Right & Symmetry Edition
GO POOP!™: Just Right & Symmetry Edition is a therapist-designed ERP card game that helps children, teens, and families practice facing "just right" and symmetry-related OCD fears in a playful, engaging way.
Modeled after the classic game Go Fish, this deck features words and phrases commonly associated with symmetry, order, perfection, balance, and "not just right" experiences. Through repeated exposure during gameplay, clients have opportunities to practice tolerating discomfort, resisting compulsions, and building flexibility when things don't feel quite right.
Designed for use by mental health professionals trained in Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), this game can be incorporated into therapy sessions to support:
Symmetry and ordering OCD
"Just right" OCD
Perfectionism-related OCD symptoms
Exposure practice through play
Identification and tracking of SUDS ratings
Increased tolerance for discomfort and uncertainty
Before gameplay, therapists can obtain SUDS ratings for each word and encourage clients to imagine or visualize the situations associated with the words. After the game, ratings can be revisited to track changes in distress and support therapeutic discussion.
GO POOP!™: Just Right & Symmetry Edition helps make ERP approachable, interactive, and even fun—while giving clinicians a creative tool for targeting one of the most common and often misunderstood OCD presentations.
For use by therapists, counselors, and other mental health professionals trained in ERP.
