Tens of thousands of readers are living freer, happier lives thanks to the clinically proven strategies in this book.

Examples and stories of people with a wide range of obsessional thoughts and compulsive behaviors illustrate the 10 steps of the program and assure readers they are not alone. Numerous worksheets and other practical tools can be downloaded and printed for repeated use. The second edition is revised throughout with cutting-edge strategies for coping with unwanted thoughts that can't be eliminated completely, plus new learning techniques drawn from brain research.
