Adaptation of the EMDR Standard Protocol for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Abstract
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterised by the persistence of recurrent and intrusive obsessions accompanied by repetitive compulsions that seek to alleviate the associated anxiety. Although its prevalence is significant, its clinical complexity is a therapeutic challenge due to the variability of symptoms, resistance to exposure and the frequent presence of comorbidities such as depression and anxiety disorders, and the partial or insufficient response to pharmacological treatment.
