Title: | Distance Treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder | Contributor(s): | Wootton, Bethany (author); Titov, Nickolai (author) | Publication Date: | 2010 | DOI: | 10.1375/bech.27.2.112 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/19912 | Abstract: | Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an important mental health problem. The Australian National Survey of Mental Health and Wellbeing estimates the 12-month prevalence of OCD is 1.9% (Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2007). Individuals with OCD experience considerable impairment in daily functioning. Cognitive and behavioural therapy for OCD has been shown to be effective, however, accessibility to evidence based treatments is limited in Australia, especially for those living in rural and remote communities. Treatment delivered in a remote fashion may improve accessibility to such treatments. The present review aimed to evaluate the current status of evidence based treatments for OCD delivered remotely. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Behaviour Change, 27(2), p. 112-118 | Publisher: | Cambridge University Press | Place of Publication: | United Kingdom | ISSN: | 2049-7768 0813-4839 |
