Program Description: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a complex and often underdiagnosed disorder that equally affects people of all genders, races, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. It is estimated that 1 in 40 adults and 1 in 100 children in the United States meets criteria for OCD. However, research suggests that only 20% will receive a diagnosis, and fewer than 10% of those diagnosed will receive adequate treatment. This training will introduce learners to the diagnostic criteria for OCD, the factors contributing to missed diagnoses, and the presentations of common subtypes. Additionally, preferred treatment methods will be introduced to develop foundational clinical skills necessary to diagnose, treat, and provide referrals to clients with OCD.

Goals: 

·        Identify the diagnostic criteria and real-world presentations of symptoms to adequately diagnose OCD.

·        Understand the most common subtypes of OCD.

·        Develop foundational knowledge about first-line interventions for OCD.

Objectives:

·        Define core characteristics of OCD.

·        Distinguish OCD symptoms from commonly misdiagnosed conditions.

·        Use conceptualization maps to identify individual experiences of clients to develop specific treatment plans.

·        Describe evidence-based interventions for OCD.

·        Given a case scenario, identify the presence of OCD, OCD subtype, and set treatment goals based on conceptualization.
