OCD Treatment: What's Specialized And What's Not

OCD-specialized treatment can make all the difference in recovery, but these days, the word "specialized" gets tossed around way too often. In this special episode of the Get to Know OCD podcast, we sit down with OCD researcher Uma Chatterjee and NOCD's Tia Wilson to dig into what truly counts as specialized care — and what doesn’t. Hear their candid convo as both share their personal experiences with effective and ineffective treatments for their OCD. This is an eye-opening conversation you won’t want to miss.
