OBSESSIVECOMPULSIVE DISORDERS: TREATING & UNDERSTANDING CRIPPLING HABITS
Steven Levenkron

About the Book
In this authoritative and compassionate study, psychotherapist Steven Levenkron explores the nature, causes, and treatment of obsessivecompulsive disorders (OCDs) behaviours that afflict millions through ritualistic patterns such as chronic checking, compulsive cleaning, overwork, or perfectionism.

Drawing on years of clinical practice and numerous case studies, Levenkron explains how obsessivecompulsive patterns arise from deeper emotional needs for safety, order, and identity in a fragmented modern world. His analysis extends beyond pathology to the human struggle for control and reassurance in times of uncertainty.

Written in accessible and humane language, the book blends sound therapeutic insight with psychological realism. Levenkrons model of treatment emphasizing empathy, structure, and the restoration of trust makes this work useful to professionals and lay readers alike.
