This presentation will focus on how clinicians can provide empirically based interventions to manage barriers to reducing family accommodation for families with OCD. Designed for the intermediate practitioner, presenters will review the negative impact of family accommodation on OCD treatment and familial relationships as well as describe the common challenges that can occur when clinicians attempt to reduce family accommodation in the home.
