Brief description Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a common and extremely disabling psychatric disorder. While cognitive-behaviour therapy (CBT) has been shown to be an effective treatment for OCD, the delivery of such treatment is limited by its cost and shortage of appropriately qualified professionals. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of an internet based CBT program for OCD, which is hoped to result in improved access to a low cost evidence based treatment for all Australians.
