Dr. Sarah Schall to Present on AI’s Impact on OCD Recovery at IECA Annual Conference 2026
The Collective Treatment Programs is proud to announce that Dr. Sarah Schall will be a featured speaker at the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA) Annual Conference in Baltimore, Maryland. Dr. Schall will present "AI and OCD: Supporting Recovery in Young Adults" on Wednesday, May 20th, from 9:15 AM to 10:15 AM.
“In an era where answers are available in seconds, young adults with OCD face a unique challenge.
