Abstract

Introduction: Preliminary occupational therapy intervention studies are much needed. Although the importance of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) recognized as highly restrictive for individuals, there are only e few studies addressing occupational therapy interventions for them. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a person-centered, holistic occupational therapy assessment and interventions using the conceptual model of practice, the Model of Human Occupation (MOHO), for persons diagnosed with OCD. Method: A demographic information form, Occupational Self-Assessment (OSA), Model of Human Occupation Screening Tool (MOHOST), and a semi-structured interview form were employed pre and post-intervention. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was also used for Case 2. Results: After 16 sessions, the findings showed positive results of the person-centered occupational therapy intervention on occupational participation and performance in both cases. Conclusion: This study highlights the effectiveness of occupational therapy intervention on occupational participation and performance, based on the MOHO approach for two cases of individuals with OCD.
