Misconceptions Among Mental Health Treatment Providers About OCD and PTSD
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) share overlapping features for which similar cognitive behavioral treatment (CBT) strategies can be employed. However, the comorbid presence of these conditions poses unique clinical considerations, and a nuanced approach to assessment, conceptualization, and treatment is needed when working with individuals with co-occurring OCD and PTSD. Treatment providers may not be aware of these nuances and may hold misconceptions about co-occurring OCD and PTSD, impacting their approach to assessment, conceptualization, and treatment. The current study sought to examine possible misconceptions among mental health treatment providers of differing specializations. Among 146 primarily CBT-oriented treatment providers (20.3% generalist, 13.0% PTSD specialist, 32.6% OCD specialist, and 34.1% OCD/PTSD specialist), exploratory factor analysis categorized misconceptions relating to Trepidation, Differential Diagnosis, Flexibility, OCD is Trauma, Trauma Misconceptions, and Compartmentalization. Overall, OCD specialists endorsed misconceptions most frequently, including those of Trepidation and underestimating the prevalence of trauma and PTSD in individuals with OCD. In contrast, PTSD specialists were more likely to endorse providing patients reassurance for their OCD-related fears, and OCD/PTSD providers were more likely to apply rigid Differential Diagnosis criteria not supported by research or diagnostic criteria to intrusive thoughts and safety behaviors. Misconceptions are explained through the lens of differing conceptualization and treatment approaches between areas of specialization.
期刊介绍:
Behavior Therapy is a quarterly international journal devoted to the application of the behavioral and cognitive sciences to the conceptualization, assessment, and treatment of psychopathology and related clinical problems. It is intended for mental health professionals and students from all related disciplines who wish to remain current in these areas and provides a vehicle for scientist-practitioners and clinical scientists to report the results of their original empirical research. Although the major emphasis is placed upon empirical research, methodological and theoretical papers as well as evaluative reviews of the literature will also be published. Controlled single-case designs and clinical replication series are welcome.
