Hi Tisha,
You can start with telling her you will answer her a specific amount of times and then will say, “I love you, so I’m not talking to your OCD” after that (or you can say you’ll ignore her). You can give her the number she is at each time as a countdown or you can give her reassurance cards to hand in as a physical indication she is doing a compulsion and only has XYZ reassurances left. The idea is you continue to reduce the number you started with and get less and less as you go.
