The Ethical Cost of Misdiagnosis: Identifying OCD Subtypes, Differential Diagnosis, and Implementing Best Practices

Getting the diagnosis right is the first step in ethical care. When OCD is missed or mislabeled, clients can spend years in the wrong treatment. This session helps clinicians, providers, and school personnel recognize the full spectrum of OCD and respond to it well.

Together we will cover:

• How to identify OCD subtypes, including the ones that often go unnoticed
• Differential diagnosis: telling OCD apart from the conditions it mimics
• Best practices you can put to work right away
