About the Intensive Program for Obsessive-Compulsive and Anxiety Disorders
The Intensive Program for Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) and Anxiety Disorders is a service within the Pediatric Anxiety Research Center (PARC) at Bradley Hospital. The program provides exposure-based treatment to children and adolescents, ages 5 to 18, who experience significant impairment in their daily lives due to all types of anxiety disorders and/or obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Treatment Approach
The goal of the Intensive Program for Obsessive-Compulsive and Anxiety Disorders is to alleviate anxiety and/or OCD symptoms while improving daily functioning and promoting further involvement in school, social, and family activities.
In line with PARC’s values of integrating research and clinical work to provide evidence-based treatment to children and adolescents, our team provides a full spectrum of research informed services, including individual, family, group, and milieu therapy. Ours is the only program on the East Coast to use a milieu-based intensive treatment model with this age group, alongside home/community-based exposure coaching.
The Intensive Hospital Program for Obsessive-Compulsive and Anxiety Disorders can be an effective care option for youth who have not responded to traditional once a week outpatient treatment or who lack specialized anxiety and OCD services where they live.
