Making Mental Wellness Easy
Types of Therapy for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
According to the American Psychological Association (APA), CBT is the primary treatment for OCD.
This therapy combines two behavior techniques, cognitive therapy and behavior therapy. The former focuses on how we think, and the latter is concerned about how it affects our behavior. According to CBT, our thoughts, feelings and behaviors are interlinked.
In treatment for OCD, it helps you recognize the pattern of those thoughts that lead to stress, anxiety or compulsive actions. It suggests intrusive thoughts are not the problem in OCD but how you react to them and what you make of them.
Exposure and Response Prevention
It’s a type of CBT and a widely used therapy for treatment of OCD. In ERP, you confront your fears, accept the uncomfortable feelings, and resist compulsive behavior. Therapy helps you to face a feared situation, thought or object in a controlled environment and encourages you to avoid the usual unhelpful behavior and replace it with a healthy one.
Initially, you face anxiety and stress from challenging your obsessions, but gradually the intensity of such emotions will decrease. This OCD therapy helps you realize how you can overrule your fears by managing your feelings and reaction to them.
Habit Reversal Training (HRT)
It’s behavioral therapy that helps you eliminate unwanted behaviors and replace them with healthy ones. It starts with recognizing your compulsive behaviors and what triggers them. Then new behaviors are practiced and reinforced to prevent unhelpful ritualistic actions from occurring.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
This therapy for OCD treatment promotes you to accept your intrusive thoughts without judgement and commit yourself to the actions that reflect your personal values. It implies that reduced struggle against your obsessions lessens their intensity and resultant distress. This therapy does not work to change your unwelcome thoughts. Rather, it changes your interaction with them. It increases your psychological flexibility with mindfulness techniques. You observe your intrusive thoughts without letting them control your behaviors.

Growing up around constant shouting, I learned to stay quiet. Even now, loud voices make my chest tighten. Through therapy with Braindost, I realized it was childhood PTSD. Now I’m slowly finding peace.
