Abstract
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and obsessive-compulsive-related disorder (OCRD) conditions ( i.e., trichotillomania, hoarding disorder, body dysmorphic disorder, excoriation disorder, Tourette’s syndrome) are psychiatric conditions that are relatively common, distressing to the patient and their family, and negatively impact the functionality and quality of life. Fortunately, the past decades have been characterized by exciting treatment developments that have demonstrated the efficacy of behaviorally based interventions for OCD, trichotillomania, hoarding disorder, body dysmorphic disorder, excoriation disorder, and Tourette’s syndrome. However, dissemination of such interventions has lagged significantly, and many individuals are not able to access care.
