專家講座2716-暴露療法-強迫症和焦慮症

In addition, the relative rarity of well-trained ERP practitioners makes it extremely difficult for OCD sufferers to find appropriate care, and many often wait years to get treatment. Finally, recent research on inhibitory learning, or how exposure works, suggests specific guidelines for amplifying treatment efficacy. Thus, this training serves a specific need in the field.
