SUMMARY:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (Oct 2025) Online Course
DESCRIPTION:OCD is the fourth most common mental illness. Patients often report high functional impairment and poor quality of life. OCD can be a challenge to properly diagnose. Other conditions present in similar ways\, such as impulse control disorders. In order to help patients find wellness\, it is essential to accurately differentiate OCD. \nThis online course helps you understand and identify clinical features of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). It is led by renowned OCD expert and Harvard Medical School Professor Sabine Wilhelm\, PhD. This course focuses on how to use effective assessment and treatment strategies for OCD in your practice. \nThese skills are critical across all professions. Psychiatrists\, primary care physicians\, psychologists\, social workers\, and other frontline mental health professionals can benefit from taking this course. During this course\, our faculty provide guidance on how to: \nDevelop a personalized cognitive behavioral model for patients with OCD based upon a comprehensive assessment.\nApply cognitive-\, behavioral-\, and acceptance-based skills to treat the different OCD symptom subtypes.\nManage treatment-interfering behaviors (such as homework noncompliance).\nThe course includes an array of role-play videos that illustrate techniques and uses self-assessments to measure and enhance your skills. You can also participate in live weekly call-in times and moderated discussion boards. This allows our faculty to provide direct feedback on all your clinical questions. All course content is 100% mobile-friendly and on-demand. You can complete assignments whenever and wherever your schedule allows!

SUMMARY:MGH 4-week Online CBT for OCD training (Beginning 10/6)
DESCRIPTION:We wanted to let you know that Massachusetts General Hospital is running a 4-week intro-level online course on CBT for OCD beginning October 6th (registration deadline October 20th). Even though ERP is the gold-standard treatment for OCD\, too few clinicians are trained in it. This course aims to close that gap and is geared towards providers early in their career\, those who want to expand their practice to include OCD\, and those who want a refresher. \nFaculty include:\n• Sabine Wilhelm\, PhD (Chief of Psychology\, Director of the Center for OCD and Related Disorders\, MGH)\n• Ryan Jacoby\, PhD (Assistant Director of the Center for OCD and Related Disorders\, MGH) \nThe course format includes on-demand video modules\, a faculty-moderated discussion board\, plus live Q&A. The format is also flexible\, allowing you to progress at your own pace until the course end date on November 17th. You can receive 10 CE Credits for participation. \nDetails: https://lms.mghcme.org/CBTocdOct2025 \nWe hope that you will join us!

SUMMARY:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder: An Online Introduction (November 2025)
DESCRIPTION:Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder (ARFID) was recently added to the Feeding and Eating Disorders section of DSM-5 to describe children\, adolescents\, and adults who do not eat enough food (by variety or volume)\, typically because of sensory sensitivity\, fear of aversive consequences (e.g.\, choking\, vomiting)\, and/or apparent lack of interest in eating or food. Although there is a robust literature on pediatric feeding disorders in very young children\, ARFID itself is so new that there is currently no evidence-based treatment for older children\, adolescents\, or adults. Thus\, our online course will fill an important gap for our colleagues who are already seeing such patients in clinical practice by providing specialized training in a new form of cognitive-behavioral therapy for ARFID (CBT-AR) that we have developed and refined at Massachusetts General Hospital for patients aged 10 through older adults. E\narly data from our preliminary efficacy studies indicate that\, on average\, patients who receive CBT-AR incorporate many novel foods into their regular diets\, gain significant weight (if underweight)\, and significantly reduce both ARFID symptom severity and food neophobia. Our 6-week course will cover the assessment of ARFID and determining patient appropriateness of CBT-AR\, as well as the implementation of all four stages of this flexible\, modular treatment. Material will be drawn from our recently published books\n(Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder: Children\, Adolescents\, and Adults\, Cambridge University Press\, 2019; and The Picky Eater’s Recovery Book: Overcoming Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder\, Cambridge University Press\, 2021)\, cases we have seen in our clinical practice\, and our ongoing research studies on the neurobiology and treatment of ARFID. \nCourse materials are available beginning on November 3\, 2025\, and all online coursework must be completed by December 29\, 2025. \nPricing\nRegistration Deadline: November 17\, 2025 \nPhysicians and Doctoral-level Professionals: $445.00\nOther Professionals: $345.00

SUMMARY:Faith & OCD Conference
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the International OCD Foundation\, this unique event began out of the recognition that many people living with OCD initially seek assistance from a faith leader prior to a mental health provider. \nThe conference was specifically created to address the needs of a diverse community — spanning all faiths\, ethnicities\, and backgrounds. We’ll provide education about effective treatment and ways to support those in the faith community living with OCD. \nJoin us for this collaborative conversation between faith leaders\, mental health providers\, and the OCD community!
