About the Book

 

Understanding and Treating OCD Through Better Reasoning

Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is often seen as an anxiety problem, but new research shows it may be more about unusual beliefs. This book helps explain how using clear thinking can improve OCD treatment.

What You’ll Learn

  • How OCD is connected to certain types of beliefs, not just anxiety
  • Different ways to study and understand OCD from research and real cases
  • Practical methods for assessing and treating OCD with reasoning skills

This book offers a step-by-step guide for therapists but is also useful for anyone curious about how better reasoning can help people with OCD feel better and manage their thoughts more effectively.
