This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of cognitive behaviour therapy delivered by telephone with the same therapy given face to face in the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder. Two psychology outpatient departments in the United Kingdom were used for the study and participants were 72 patients with obsessive compulsive disorder. The intervention consisted of 10 weekly sessions of exposure therapy and response prevention delivered by telephone or face to face. The main outcome measures Yale Brown obsessive compulsive disorder scale, Beck depression inventory, and client satisfaction questionnaire were used. The difference in the Yale Brown obsessive compulsive disorder checklist score between the two treatments at six months was -0.55. Patient satisfaction was high for both forms of treatment. The clinical outcome of cognitive behaviour therapy delivered by telephone was equivalent to treatment delivered face to face and similar levels of satisfaction were reported.
