How do we improve treatment outcomes in hoarding disorder? Emerging research suggests targeting social factors, so we did! 📡New article out, piloting a social cognition intervention in individuals with HD. This was my biggest study in my PhD, so super proud of this one.🧵

AACBT’s Pub Discussion tonight with Prof. Jess Grisham was one to remember. Sobering that #cbtworks but only 5% of people with OCD receive it

📊🔔So pleased to share this experimental study! We tested whether we could “re-script” OCD-related mental imagery of the future using audio-guided exercises - and compared this to brief imaginal exposure & control tasks. Jessicag Gordana Popovic authors.elsevier.com/a/1gew17spc4j4…
