Scrupulosity OCD, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
Abstract
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has been evident to be the most successful treatment in treating individuals struggling with Scrupulosity OCD. CBT focuses on training the cognitive part of our brain to differentiate the individual’s intrusive, obsessive thoughts and thoughts that are real. It helps the individual struggling with Scrupulosity OCD to be presented with factual information to provide evidence against their obsessive thoughts. In this paper, it will provide the information supporting that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is the most successful in treating individuals with Scrupulosity OCD. The information provided shows that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is successful because it focuses more on deteriorating the thought-action process that an individual with Scrupulosity OCD experiences. Therefore, it then becomes a more successful approach to treating Scrupulosity OCD.
