This training is a unique experience for you to explore and increase your understanding of Compulsive Hoarding and to obtain practical skills from a therapist who lived for 10 years with a partner who was compulsively hoarding.

The training is a mixture of theory and experiential learning and will include:

• We will clarify the issue of: ‘Is Hoarding OCD or OCD Hoarding?’

• DSM definitions

• Public and private value of possessions

• Psychological conceptualisations of hoarding

• Person-Object relations – burying the soul with objects

• Phenomenology of clinical approach

• Variations of hoarders, comorbidities and social/environmental impacts

• The ‘integrative approach’ a working model
