[Audio] IC11 Clinical Demonstration 11 – Strategic Treatment of Obsessions and Compulsions – Reid Wilson

Description:

Persuading OCD clients to adopt a new frame of reference is the therapist’s primary task. Altering perception–not adding technique–helps them change directions, because belief always trumps exposure practice. Participants will learn a persuasive strategy–built out of whole cloth within the first session–that will frame the entire treatment protocol.

Educational Objectives:

1. Defend the importance of altering perception, as opposed to utilizing technique, to help clients with obsessions or compulsions.
2. Describe and utilize a persuasive strategy to frame the treatment protocol for obsessions and compulsions.
