Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) affects approximately 2% of children and adolescents, yet it is often underdiagnosed and undertreated. Many therapists express a lack of training in delivering CBT for OCD, and families often have difficulty finding a therapist confident to treat their child’s symptoms.

Dr Krisch is has extensive experience assessing and treating OCD in young people. She is also an experienced trainer, as she regularly provides supervision as a board approved supervisor, and has delivered guest lectures in psychology at Griffith University.

The clinical phenomenology and theoretical formulation of paediatric OCD
How to conduct an evidence-based assessment for OCD in young people
The current evidence-base for CBT including ERP
How to deliver family-based psychoeducation
How to conduct ERP with children and adolescents and maximise outcomes
How to deliver relapse prevention planning for paediatric OCD
Attendees will develop practical assessment and treatment skills via case studies, group discussion and demonstration of techniques through role-plays. The workshop is suitable for therapists working with children and adolescents including psychologists, social workers, psychotherapists, psychiatrists, and counsellors.
Cost: $300 incl GST
A 6hr CPD certificate will be provided to attendees of the workshop.
