Time Spent on Thinking and Acting
Yale Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (YBOCS)
It takes a lot for us to reflect and explore aspects of ourselves. We applaud your curiosity and courage. We are so glad you are here!
Who is this screener for?
This screener is called the YBOCS and it is one of several different OCD screeners. It is designed for adults 18+ and can help in determining if OCD support or treatment may be beneficial to you and/or how to proceed regarding an evaluation or diagnosis. Click here to learn more about OCD.
The results of this screener are by no means an indicator of who you are or the full picture; it is simply a first step in exploring.
