Background An effective primary treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in children and adolescents as well adults is exposure response prevention (ERP), a form of intervention the context cognitive-behavioral therapy. Despite strong evidence supporting efficacy effectiveness ERP from studies research real-world settings, its clinical use remains limited. This underuse often attributed to access barriers such scarcity properly trained therapists, geographical constraints, costs....

Exposure and response prevention, a type of cognitive-behavioral therapy, is an effective first-line treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Despite extensive evidence the efficacy exposure prevention (ERP) from clinical studies in real-world samples, it still underused as treatment. This likely due to limits access care that include availability adequately trained therapists, well geographical location, time, cost barriers. To address these, NOCD created digital behavioral health...

Objective: To examine the effectiveness of virtual therapy-delivered habit reversal training (HRT) in large real-world samples children, adolescents, and adults with trichotillomania excoriation disorder. Methods: The sample included 543 patients (57 75 408 adults) 528 disorder (40 46 442 adults). Treatment followed a protocol twice-weekly HRT sessions, transitioning to weekly sessions. Repetitive Body Focused Behavior Scale (RBFBS) was administered at baseline, weeks 5-7, 14-16, during...

Exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy, a form of cognitive-behavioral is first-line, evidence-based treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) adults children. It effective the majority those who engage in it, but adherence can be challenging some due to stress involved as well different life circumstances that arise. To help improve adherence, NOCD, provider video teletherapy ERP, identifies at risk non-adherence using prediction algorithm trained on data set N = 13,809...

Abstract Effective first-line treatments for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) include exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy. Despite extensive evidence of its efficacy in clinical studies real-world samples, ERP is still underutilized as a treatment, likely due to access care barriers such the availability adequately trained therapists, geographical location, time, cost.
