Overview
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychological condition characterized by persistent, intrusive thoughts, worries and rituals. OCD can significantly impact an individual's quality of life, interfering with their daily activities, relationships and self-care. OCD therapy is a form of psychological treatment that aims to help individuals manage their symptoms by targeting the underlying issues which provoke them. This can involve exposure and response prevention, cognitive restructuring and relaxation training, as well as medication and other forms of support. Treatment of OCD can have a significant positive effect, enabling people to lead happier and more fulfilling lives.
