Breaking Barriers: The IOCDF Conference & The Future of OCD Treatment

The 2025 IOCDF Conference — starting July 10 in Chicago — is set to bring together clinicians, researchers, and individuals with OCD for a weekend focused on education, advocacy, and community. In this episode, Rebecca Deusser, Executive Director of the International OCD Foundation, talks with Dr. Patrick McGrath about what makes this event unique and why it has become such an important gathering for the OCD community. They discuss new initiatives for this year’s conference, including expanded virtual access, increased programming for families, and a stronger emphasis on global outreach. Beyond the conference, Rebecca shares the IOCDF’s long-term goals, from pushing for more research funding to improving access to treatment worldwide. With OCD still widely misunderstood and effective care difficult to find, the need for advocacy has never been greater. This conversation dives into how the conference plays a key role in breaking stigma, equipping clinicians with better training, and giving those affected by OCD the resources they need.
