How can we treat OCD?
There are various different ways of treating OCD, and these will be discussed with you at your appointment with one of our friendly clinicians.
Generally speaking these can be divided into Non-Medication and Medication Treatments.
Non medication treatments often involve psychological therapies such as CBT which helps you face your fears and obsessive thoughts without “putting them right” through compulsions.
There are also a number of different medications that can be prescribed for OCD that will be discussed at your appointment with your clinician.
It is often the case that people respond differently to medications, and therefore at Harley Street Mental Health our clinicians like to discuss individualised treatment plans and come to a shared decision on which treatment plan would be most appropriate.
