On Demand OCD & Anxiety Lecture Series: The Treatment of Co-occurring Borderline Personality Disorder and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a common comorbidity in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). And yet, the effect of the comorbidity on the symptom presentation, course, and treatment outcome of OCD is rarely fully examined in clinical practice. This lecture will examine the clinical presentation when the conditions co-occur and will provide some insights into the treatment of the comorbid conditions.

    Target Audience

    This activity is intended for physicians, nurses, psychologists, social workers, counselors, and other mental health professionals.
