OCD Television Documentary
In 2006, Lauren Greenfield unveiled the HBO documentary THIN to rave reviews at Robert Redford’s Sundance Film Festival. Revealing the inner world of anoretics, bulemics and treatment at the Renfrew Center Foundation, THIN brought eating disorders and the battle to overcome them to the forefront of modern consciousness.
Now, two years later, production company Tijuana Entertainment hopes to bring the same focus and understanding to the treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, commonly referred to as OCD, and its related disorders.
As Tijuana Ent. gears up to create the new documentary series in Los Angeles, they’re searching for people in need of help. The non-exploitive documentary will aim to improve the participants’ lives through sessions with licensed therapists including John Tsilimparis, MFT and Karen Pickett, MFT. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy will be provided free of charge to the chosen applicants during production and filming.

It is a miracle that I found this. Please help! I’ve been married 10 years to a man with debilitating OCD. His illness has really torn us apart as a couple not to mention the harm that is doing to my 5 year old son. I am desperate for someone to care enough to understand what we are all going through. Please write back. We need you!

Thank you for contacting me. I’ve sent an email directly to you with information about OCD and additional resources for you to investigate. Good Luck,
Kate
