2024 Virtual OCD-UK Conference - Welcome to Hotel OCD-UK, flying the flag for recovery!

Dr Blake Stobie

Common sense or nonsense? Ideas that have held back and advanced the treatment of OCD

Broadcast live on Friday 8th November 2024

Speaker

Dr Blake Stobie, Lead Consultant Psychologist and Clinical Director of the Centre for Anxiety Disorders and Trauma (CADAT) at the Maudsley Hospital.
The presentation will be facilitated by a member of the OCD-UK team.

Presentation subject

This presentation will provide an historical overview of the development of psychological treatments for OCD. Several common sense ideas along the way have made intuitive sense at the time, but have later proven to be incorrect and unhelpful. The talk will also reflect on key steps forward in the treatment of OCD and what we have learned from these.
