This three-day course aims to equip delegates with a comprehensive understanding of OCD and its treatment through CBT. Through a combination of lectures, case studies, demonstrations and interactive exercises, participants will gain expertise in assessment, formulation, and tailored interventions for individuals suffering with OCD.

Day 1

Define OCD and differentiate between obsessions and compulsions.

Understand the prevalence, aetiology, and subtypes of OCD.

Tools and techniques for conducting a comprehensive OCD assessment.

Cognitive-behavioural model of OCD.

Identify common cognitive distortions in individuals with OCD.

Day 2:

Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP).

Designing and implementing effective exposure hierarchies.

How to support clients during ERP

Day 3:

Cognitive Restructuring in OCD.

Integrating cognitive interventions with ERP.

Ending treatment and developing a relapse prevention plan.

Cultural sensitivity and diversity in OCD treatment.

Putting it Together: how you and your service can put into practice what you have learned; identifying and problem solving barriers, planning and implementation going forward.

As with all our courses, we use a combination of lectures, demonstrations, group discussion and role play to teach the material.

This course is suitable for mental health professionals (with or without a core training), psychologists, counsellors, psychotherapists, and individuals interested in gaining insights into treating OCD. This training can serve as a refresher course for those who have previous experience of working with OCD.

Note: This course provides an advanced overview of CBT for OCD and is intended for mental health professionals with a foundational understanding of CBT principles. Attendees are encouraged to continue their education and seek supervision as needed, especially when working with complex cases of OCD.

This course does not qualify participants to practice as CBT therapists. Consultation with a qualified mental health professional is essential for any clinical practice involving assessment, formulation, diagnosis or treatment.
