Summary:
The seminar will clarify how to accurately diagnose OCD and how to differentiate it from “normal” behaviour.
The so-called, increasing incidence of the condition will be discussed and clarified. Numerous examples from clinical practice will be utilised.
The treatment of OCD will then be discussed and illustrated with examples.
The intention is to raise awareness of what would constitute a proper diagnosis of OCD and to ensure that the optimum strategies to treat this complex disorder would subsequently be employed by participants.
