OCD Treatment

Rehabilitation centers offer specialized OCD treatment through a combination of therapy, medication, and structured support. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), particularly Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), is used to help patients confront obsessions and resist compulsions. Medications, such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are often prescribed to manage symptoms by increasing serotonin levels in the brain. Alongside CBT, mindfulness and relaxation techniques are implemented to help reduce anxiety and compulsive behaviors.

Rehabilitation centers provide a supportive environment with group therapy, peer support, and ongoing psychiatric evaluations, ensuring continuous care. Family involvement is also crucial, as therapy educates loved ones on how to support the patient’s recovery. By integrating these methods, rehab centers offer a holistic approach that aims to reduce OCD symptoms, improve quality of life, and support long-term recovery.
