The Evolution Of OCD Treatment: Then, Now, And The Future

A decade ago, finding effective OCD treatment was an uphill battle —misdiagnosis, stigma, and inaccessibility left many struggling alone. But change is happening. OCD advocate Chrissie Hodges and Stephen Smith, co-founder and CEO of NOCD, share their personal and professional journeys in reshaping the landscape of OCD care. From grassroots advocacy to groundbreaking digital therapy, they explore how far treatment has come, but also the obstacles that still prevent people from getting help.

Despite big progress, stigma and misinformation continue to delay diagnosis and treatment, especially for those facing the most distressing OCD themes. Chrissie and Stephen cover why awareness is the final frontier and how the next decade can bring true accessibility, understanding, and support for those who need it most.
