A member asked:
How effective is psychoeducation for treating obsessive compulsive disorder (ocd)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Meds and therapy: Psychoeducation certainly cannot hurt, but more is needed. Meds (usually antianxiety medications, but not always) combined with therapy with a clinician who specializes on OCD is the best combination to treat OCD, typically. This is the best treatment approach for OCD, but it does not guarantee a cure for it.
