https://missionconnectionhealthcare.com/our-approach/cognitive-behavioral-therapy/Exposure therapy sounds like one technique, but why does it look so radically different for OCD versus PTSD? With up to 82% overlap between the two conditions, therapists face a critical question: which map do you follow when symptoms collide?
[thoughtful] Here's something that surprised me: a systematic review of twenty randomized controlled trials found no statistically significant difference in the relative efficacy of cognitive therapy and exposure therapy for PTSD, OCD, and panic disorder, but it did find a statistically significant difference favoring cognitive therapy over exposure in social phobia. So if the results are so close for PTSD and OCD, why do the techniques look so different? Today we're digging into CBT for PTSD versus OCD, and why exposure therapy isn't a one-size-fits-all tool.
