This lesson introduces clients to the concept of Obsessional Doubt, which will provide them with the necessary foundation to engage with I-CBT.
This lesson reviews the various OCD presentations including obsessional themes, doubts, and compulsions.
This lesson provides clients with the opportunity to identify their doubts, narrow them down to primary doubts, and recognize the 5 elements of the Obsessional Sequence.
Originally Module 1 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
In this lesson, clients gain an understanding of the "reasons" leading them to believe they should doubt an aspect of their experience.
Originally Module 2 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
In this lesson, clients recognize that the "reasons" identified in Lesson 4 work together to form a story that makes the doubt feel convincing and real.
Originally Module 3 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
Clients learn how creating alternate stories can dislodge the obsessional story from its pedestal by demonstrating that there are many other possible stories to be told.
Originally Module 9 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
This lesson explores how a feared "possible" version of the self directs individuals with OCD to doubt in particular areas in life.
Originally Module 4 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
In this lesson, clients learn how the Real Self becomes obscured by the Feared Possible Self, and how re-establishing self-knowledge and a trust in the Real Self is critical to OCD recovery.
Originally Module 11 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
In this lesson, clients learn how exploring doubts in the imagination leads to real-feeling experiences that can feel like evidence that the doubt is true.
Originally Module 5 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
In this lesson, clients identify how the reasoning tendency of an over-reliance on possibility leads to obsessional doubt, and how re-establishing the requirement for direct evidence eliminates this pathway into doubt.
Originally Module 6 in the Clinician’s Handbook for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Inference-Based Therapy by Aardema and O'Connor.
This lesson reviews a number of specific obsessional reasoning tricks that arise from inferential confusion, and provides guidance on how to identify and eliminate these tricks.

This section introduces a new, condensed version of my slides for those fully familiar with I-CBT. The original slides included with my training videos are overly thorough due to having "training wheels" included to help guide clinicians and help with many of the different issues that can come up. This new format greatly reduces the quantity of slides so that clinicians can feel like sessions are less didactic and more collaborative and conversational. The overall structure of the intervention has also been simplified. 3 different sets of slides are included (1. An introduction to I-CBT, 2. a set of slides for clients that need assessment of their OCD, and 3. The main set of slides for the treatment. The main set of slides is broken down into 5 color-coded sections: 1. Doubt, 2. Obsessional Stories, 3. The Feared Possible Self, 4. Obsessional Reasoning, and 5. Resolving Doubt. Also included are all worksheets in a single workbook file.
