Publishers Description: Obsessions generate anxieties; compulsions diminish them. Drs. McGinn and Sanderson demonstrate that if the assumptions governing obsessions and compulsions are challenged, the seemingly closed circle can be broken and an intransigent disorder treated. They model the therapists use of cognitive behavioral techniques session by session, scripting the clinical approach to each intervention: Psychoeducation strategies; Cognitive Restructuring; Systematic Exposure; and Response Prevention. Focusing on a single composite case to animate a workable program, the authors manage to cover all bases while leaving room for compassionate improvisation.
