The expert panelists will present advances in specialized treatments for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD), focusing on complex interventions for difficult-to-treat or intransigent symptoms characteristic of each disorder. Specific impediments to optimal treatment response and challenges when providing combined treatments will be addressed. Advances in specialized cognitive therapy and behavioral interventions to improve collaboration, promote resilience, and optimize long-term outcome will be discussed and illustrated. New pharmacologic approaches for each disorder will also be highlighted. Substantial time will be allocated to discussion among the presenters and with the audience.
