What Is OCD?
Obsessive-compulsive disorder involves intrusive thoughts called obsessions and repetitive behaviors or mental rituals called compulsions. These patterns try to ease distress but often consume time and disrupt life. Effective treatment teaches new responses to triggers and reduces reliance on rituals.
Is OCD Treatable?
OCD responds well to structured, evidence-based care. At Brook Addiction Treatment, we use exposure and response prevention and cognitive-behavioral therapy to help reduce symptoms and restore stability. With a personalized plan and steady practice, many people build lasting coping skills and improve daily functioning.

FAQs
What does an OCD treatment center do compared to a general therapist?
An OCD treatment center specializes in obsessive-compulsive disorder, using structured approaches such as ERP and CBT. General therapy may help with stress, but OCD care requires specialist-led methods for long-term progress.
Which therapies are most effective for OCD?
Exposure and response prevention is the leading method, often combined with cognitive-behavioral therapy. These approaches help you face triggers without rituals and develop flexible coping skills.
Is OCD curable, and what outcomes can I expect?
Treatment does not guarantee a cure, but many people experience lasting relief with ERP and CBT. Expect fewer intrusive thoughts, reduced time on compulsions, and stronger daily functioning over time.
How soon can I start, and how often are sessions?
Most people begin within days of their first call. Day Treatment (PHP) offers full-day therapy several times a week. Half-Day Treatment (IOP) runs 3–4 hours a day, 3–5 days per week.
Do you treat different OCD subtypes, such as harm, contamination, or checking?
Yes. We design tailored exposure plans for contamination and washing, checking, ordering and symmetry, harm thoughts, relationship OCD, and scrupulosity.
