Description

As a therapist and a somewhat obsessive-compulsive type myself, I started out wondering what this book could teach me, and, better yet, what it could offer my OCD clients. I ended up mesmerized by each chapter! What a wealth of knowledge the authors have put together. The book is humorously written and very thorough in its description of OCD and related disorders. However, the most rewarding part of the book is the "nuts and bolts" description of treating OCD. So often books go into all the nuances of a problem without actually providing treatment solutions. Drs Smith and Elliott are masterful in their presentation of cutting-edge treatments. Both patients and therapists will enjoy this book and find it extremely helpful in handling OCD.
