Integrating Videoconferencing Into Treatment for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Practical Strategies With Case Examples
Open accessAbstract
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), a disabling psychiatric illness, creates substantial societal burden. Evidence-based treatments, including psychopharmacology and exposure with response/ritual prevention (EX/RP), are often inaccessible. Digital health technologies, including videoconferencing, may increase access, but the best way to integrate them with current treatments remains unclear. This column describes the experiences of faculty at the Center for OCD and Related Disorders with videoconferencing-assisted treatment. Through a case series, the authors describe five ways to incorporate videoconferencing into OCD treatment: hybrid in-person/remote EX/RP; fully remote EX/RP; and videoconferencing-assisted psychopharmacology, support groups, and clinical supervision. For each strategy, the authors highlight advantages, challenges, clinical considerations, and avenues needing further research.

There are very few studies on the application of group psychotherapy for OCD via videoconference.
“Existen muy pocos estudios sobre la aplicación de psicoterapia grupal para el TOC por videoconferencia. Recientemente se han aplicado grupos de apoyo y psicoeducativos por videoconferencia para pacientes que sufren TOC (Kayser et al., 2021; Scholl et al., 2021).”
From Terapia cognitivo-conductual grupal por videoconferencia para el trastorno obsesivo-compulsivo: Estudio piloto. (2023) · cites this paper as Kayser et al., 2021
The “Virtual Support Groups” section says OCD support groups are offered by videoconference but remain untested in controlled trials; the Discussion says virtual support groups need further testing. This supports a shortage of evidence for virtual support groups, but the paper does not specifically assess how many studies examine group psychotherapy for OCD by videoconference. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
