From Friday, October 7th to Sunday, October 9th, OCD Southern California joined the International OCD Foundation (IOCDF) and hosted the Costa Mesa, California, Behavior Therapy Training Institute (BTTI) – https://iocdf.org/professionals/training-institute/btti/!
In line with our mission statement, the BTTI trained many local, Southern Californian therapists in evidence-based treatment for OCD. These are clinicians who have just started treating individuals with OCD who were given training and consultation on providing the best treatment available to treat clients with OCD. The BTTI training allows more people in the Southern California area to find the necessary providers trained in how to treat their OCD!
Thank you to the IOCDF staff for putting this event on and to all of our sponsors for aiding in making this possible: NOCD, The OCD Center of Los Angeles, The Gateway Institute, Rogers Behavioral Health, Westwood Institute for Anxiety Disorders, Cohen OCD Therapy, Choice Therapy, The Renewed Freedom Center, Michelle Witkin, Ph.D., and Beachfront Anxiety Specialists. It was incredible having all of the OCD SoCal board members together and attending all weekend to help out!
