Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is one of the most serious and disabling psychopathology, characterized by obsessive thoughts and repetitive rituals. The TOC is structured on the basis of logic is self budgets and rational mechanisms which, taken to the extreme, become absurd and illogical.
The model evolved from the strategic brief therapy proposed by Giorgio Nardone, is proposed as an extraordinarily effective tool to combat OCD, precisely because it is able to self-destruct logic that imprisons the mind and redirect the absurd rationality.
The author devotes much of the work to clinical practice, exposing numerous cases of patients who were able to break the barriers of fear and obsession relying on carefully planned therapeutic stratagems.
