A Cognitive Approach to Treating ObsessiveCompulsive DisorderBased on research funded by the National Institute of Mental Health, this manual presents for the first time a purely cognitive approach to treating obsessivecompulsive disorder (OCD). This approach avoids the highly distressing exposure component of exposure and response prevention therapy (ERP) that is commonly used to treat the symptoms of OCD. Not only does this cognitive therapy (CT) approach open up the option of psychotherapy to those OCD sufferers who resist exposurebased therapy, it also holds great promise for treating OCD sufferers with mental rituals as well as those who struggle concurrently with depression, anxiety, and other symptoms.The strategies described in this book focus intensively on the intrusive thoughts that can trigger negative beliefs and drive compulsive behaviors. The manual begins with a brief review of current facts about OCD. Then it describes how cognitive therapy can be applied to OCD. The several treatment modules that follow outline a brief threetofour session approach therapists can use to help clients make real progress on their OCD beliefs and behavioral symptoms. Each module is complemented by a series of client worksheets and handouts.This purely cognitive approach to OCD offers a number of benefits including: CT avoids the discomfort of prolonged exposure and response prevention (ERP)The therapy can be conducted entirely in the therapists officeCT is especially useful for patients with mental rituals and neutralizing strategiesThe treatment is based on NIMHfunded research and is empirically supported

While I found this book helpful, it didn't cover some aspects of OCD that I was hoping for. The concepts are clear, but I expected a little more depth in certain areas. Still, it's a good starting point.

Helped me understand OCD better
I’m not a therapist, but I wanted to learn more about OCD for a friend. This guide was informative and easy to follow, which helped me understand the cognitive therapy process. It’s a great resource for professionals and laypeople alike!

Good resource, but slightly lacking
This book offers solid insights into OCD treatment, but I wish it had more case studies. The information is valuable, yet a bit more depth would make it even better. Still a great addition to my library.
