How does PCH Treatment Center treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder?
When a person with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder arrives at PCH Treatment Center, a thorough initial assessment is performed. A doctoral level psychologist is assigned to each Client, specific to their needs and psychological issues. In the initial evaluation, we endeavor to accurately diagnosis their psychological problems, discarding useless diagnoses or stigmatizing labels. A thorough history of symptoms, behaviors, medications, medical problems and family history is obtained. The foundation at PCH Treatment Center is psychotherapy. Each Client receives four individual psychotherapy sessions per week, complemented by Somatic Experiencing. In our weekly case conferences, each Client’s progress is carefully monitored, and the clinical team contributes to their care plan. Our staff psychiatrist, Dr. William Wirshing evaluates each Client after admission. He verifies the medication regimen and endeavors to minimize the number and amount of medicines each Client is taking. PCH Treatment
