Therapy resources

[Forum Moderators]

Hello!

Forum moderators here: We want be sure everyone knows that the OCD Action website has lots of very useful resources about therapy (and other types of treatment).

How do I find therapy /treatment resources on the website?

Do you want to know what to expect during your first therapy appointment? Or not sure if the therapy you’re having is appropriate for you?

A good place to start is our Cognitive Behavioural Therapy With Exposure And Response Prevention page. You’ll find links to therapy resources including:

• Therapy (CBT with ERP)
  • Good quality CBT with ERP
  • What to look for in a therapist
  • Making the most of therapy

How do I find all of OCD Action’s treatment resources?

1. At the top of the homepage, click on the green “Learn About OCD” bar. Then, click on one of these two options:

2a. “Treatment Overview” to read our summary about treatments, including links to:

• More on CBT
• More on medication
• More on getting help through the NHS

2b. “All of our information resources“ Next, scroll down and click on a blue bar, for example “I want to find out about the recommended treatments”. You’ll then see these links:

  • Good quality CBT with ERP

  • Making the most of therapy

We hope you’ll find this helpful!
