A Certified OCD Training in Functional Medicine for Mental Health Providers & Therapists
Broaden your therapeutic approach to anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) with breakthrough interventions and evidence-based tools you can implement immediately with your patients.
Help your patients move from finding calm, to finally calm with the Functional & Integrative Medicine for the Treatment of OCD Training led by James Greenblatt, MD. This self-paced, certified training equips mental health providers and therapists with scientific, evidence-based tools that can be used immediately with patients. Join Dr. Greenblatt as he illuminates a path towards real, sustained recovery, and offers hands-on support to help you treat complex cases of OCD.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) affects 1 in 40 people (2.3% of the population), impacting individuals universally. The effects of OCD can be profound, hindering productivity and fulfillment in life. While traditional approaches primarily center around psychotherapy and medications—providing benefits to many patients—there is growing scientific and evidence-based research demonstrating that anxiety disorders arise from discrete biological factors such as genetics, inflammation, gut dysbiosis, and more significantly, serotonergic dysfunction.
START DATE: Next training begins December 12. Live sessions with faculty will be held December 12, 15 and 22.
PROGRAM FORMAT: Self-paced, online training featuring guided curriculum and three live clinical sessions with James Greenblatt, MD, and Sharon Hausman-Cohen, MD, FAAFP, ABIHM

OCD Intensive Training Curriculum
Functional & Integrative Medicine for OCD Training Lectures
In these guided lectures, Dr. James Greenblatt provides a comprehensive evaluation of all the factors that lead to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and other affective disorders. He reviews key nutrients associated with symptoms of OCD, plus relevant lab testing protocols and supplementation for treatment. Dr. Greenblatt then takes a deep-dive into the gut-mind connection and microbiome, along with contributing factors to folate deficiency, opioid peptides, systemic inflammation and nutritional deficiencies. He rounds out the course with a close look at sertonergic signaling, and functional and integrative treatments, including vitamin, amino acid, herbal and mineral supplementation, and lifestyle changes.
New Functional & Natural Strategies to Treat OCD Webinar
In this exclusive webinar, Dr. Greenblatt explores the biological triggers of OCD and reviews the nutritional intervention, inositol, for optimizing serotonin synthesis. Inositol is a B vitamin that plays vital roles in serotonin signaling and has demonstrated significant benefits for individuals struggling with OCD. Trainees will gain an expanded clinical toolkit and proven, evidence-based strategies for inositol supplementation to help optimize recovery and outcomes for OCD patients.
