Summary
This study tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS can make exposure therapy work better for young people with OCD. Fifty participants aged 12 to 21 will receive daily TMS followed by therapy for two weeks. Researchers will compare real TMS to a fake version to see if it reduces compulsive behaviors and changes brain activity.
