COURSE DESCRIPTION
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a life-long disabling disorder that affects between 2-3% of the population. The disorder often goes undiagnosed and unrecognized by treatment providers. Worse still, some presentations of OCD are misdiagnosed as other disorders. While effective CBT treatments exist, many practitioners are not knowledgeable about the specific CBT strategies to use in OCD treatment and how to maintain their clients’ motivation. Other providers, may provide treatments that worsen OCD. This workshop will introduce the attendees to assessment practices for OCD, common presentations of OCD, structuring treatment, and conducting treatment in order to assist your clients to have a life worth living with freedom from OCD’s control.
