Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder. In 2020, 110,594 people were diagnosed with an anxiety disorder in Ohio. We solve unmet needs at SUN Behavioral Health Columbus by providing OCD treatment. Our no-cost care assessment allows individuals seeking treatment to meet with a representative to discuss their treatment plan before starting treatment.
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) refers to a long-term disorder where someone experiences recurring uncontrollable thoughts known as obsessions. They may also participate in repetitive behaviors known as compulsions. This disorder results in the people who have it to experience significant interference in their daily lives. However, remember that with proper treatment, symptoms will improve.
OCD is different from OCPD (obsessive-compulsive personality disorder). When it comes to OCPD, a personality disorder, the person might experience preoccupation with organization, control, and perfectionism. They have beliefs and specific ways of doing tasks that do not allow flexibility. On the other hand, OCD is an anxiety disorder that has unwanted thoughts that cause someone to perform repetitive behaviors. You will need a thorough assessment by a medical professional to determine the best care plan for your needs.
The treatment for OCD typically involves a combination of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and medications such as antidepressants. At SUN Behavioral Health Columbus, our mental health services offer OCD treatment at the inpatient and outpatient levels.
Our inpatient treatment provides mental health crisis stabilization for children, adolescents, and adults. The typical stay for an inpatient treatment at our facility is 7-14 days.
A partial hospitalization program (PHP) is the highest level of mental health outpatient and runs from 9 AM until 2:30 PM Monday through Friday. PHP is available for both adolescents and adults. Our daytime intensive outpatient (IOP) is available 3 hours a day Monday through Friday. Both adolescents and adults can participate in our IOP. We also offer an evening IOP for adults that runs for 3 hours a day, 3 evenings a week. Topics during our outpatient programming include processing groups, goals groups, coping skills, stress, time management, and rec therapy.
A combination of genetics, environment, and past traumas may cause OCD.
The most common risk factors for someone to develop OCD are family history, childhood trauma, and brain functioning.
