Abstract
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) co-occurs with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) nearly 25% of the time, and rates of co-occurring OCD within PTSD populations are even higher. Several studies examining the impact of co-occurring OCD and PTSD with suggest attenuated treatment response, yet findings regarding symptom presentation in this population are mixed. Given phenotypic, functional, and sometimes etiological overlap in OCD and PTSD, differential diagnosis and specialized treatment can be a complex yet important undertaking. This paper reviews the current literature on co-occurring OCD and PTSD; describes the theoretical conceptualization for the intersection of OCD and PTSD; offers recommendations for differential assessment and cognitive behavioral treatment; and provides directions for future research on co-occurring OCD and PTSD.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Cognitive Psychotherapy is devoted to advancing the science and clinical practice of cognitive-behavior therapy. This includes a range of interventions including cognitive therapy, rational-emotive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness approaches. The journal publishes empirical papers, including case studies, along with review articles, papers that integrate cognitive-behavior therapy with other systems, and practical "how to" articles.
