Projects

Scientific evaluation is taking place as part of a research project. The aim of the study is to scientifically investigate the effect of the new treatment offer in the form of an intensive week for patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder in Switzerland. The aim is to investigate whether patients who take part in the intensive week make significant progress in the treatment of their obsessive-compulsive disorder (pre-, post-, 3 months and 1 year) and thus achieve an improvement in their quality of life. In addition, the results will be compared with a waiting control group that has been receiving treatment as usual.
