Welcome to OCDOnline.Com. This web site is exclusively devoted to promoting a greater understanding of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder's (OCD) treatment and mental processes. The creator of this site, Dr Steven Phillipson, recognizes that OCD is still minimally understood by the vast majority of mental health professionals. Although the most commonly known forms of OCD (contamination and checking) have received the greatest amount of media and research attention, lessor known forms of OCD (i.e. the purely obsessional type and the responsibility OC) make up a very large proportion of the clinical population. The articles presented here represent state of the art conceptual understanding and treatment approaches developed for mainstream and lessor studied forms of OCD.
Dr. Steven Phillipson is a licensed clinical psychologist who has specialized in the cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT) of OCD since 1986. Dr. Phillipson has contributed numerous articles to the OC Foundation's newsletter and was asked in 1991 to produce the first video on the treatment of the purely obsessional type of OCD. In 1987 Dr. Phillipson and his mentor Dr Gordon Ball started the first CBT/Support group for OCD sufferers in the New York area. Dr. Phillipson's position as clinical director at the Center for Cognitive Behavioral Psychotherapy started in 1997. In addition Dr Phillipson functions as a clinical site supervisor for doctoral candidates from a variety of local Ph.D. programs including, Long Island University, Fordham University, Yeshiva University and Rutgers University.
