The I-CBT Practitioner's Manual: Complete Clinical Protocols, Session-by-Session Guidance, and Practice Resources for Mental Health Professionals

Stop Treating Only Anxiety. Start Treating the Reasoning Error.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder doesn't stem from anxiety alone. It emerges from a fundamental reasoning error: clients confuse imagination with reality. When imagined contamination feels as certain as observed cleanliness, compulsions become irresistible.

The I-CBT Practitioner's Manual teaches you to target this inferential confusion directly. Your clients will learn to distinguish sensory evidence from imagination, challenge reasoning patterns maintaining doubt, and experience natural compulsion reduction as conviction decreases.

This comprehensive clinical resource provides:

✓ Complete session-by-session protocols from initial assessment through successful termination

✓ Reality-sensing techniques that ground clients in observable evidence rather than imagined scenarios

✓ Detailed guidance for every OCD subtype: contamination fears, harm obsessions, relationship OCD, scrupulosity, just-right concerns, and existential obsessions

✓ Annotated session transcripts showing exactly what expert practitioners say and when they intervene

✓ Reproducible client materials including psychoeducation handouts, practice logs, monitoring forms, and worksheets

✓ Full-length case studies following clients from assessment to termination with realistic setbacks and solutions

✓ Troubleshooting strategies for reassurance-seeking, certainty demands, poor insight, and treatment resistance

✓ Integration protocols for combining I-CBT with ERP, ACT, medication management, and treatment of comorbid conditions

Six comprehensive appendices deliver quick-reference guides, decision trees, complete session transcripts with therapist annotations, ready-to-use client handouts, assessment measures, documentation templates, and clinical glossary.

For psychologists, therapists, counselors, social workers, psychiatrists, and graduate students seeking evidence-based alternatives to exposure-focused treatment.

Master the reasoning-focused approach transforming OCD treatment.
