Struggling with OCD? Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT) goes deeper than just managing the content of your thoughts - it targets the reasoning process that gives those thoughts power in the first place.
I-CBT helps you recognize when you’re reasoning from imagination instead of reality. It teaches you to step out of obsessional logic and re-anchor in the here and now.
Instead of asking “Could this be true?” we ask:
👉 Where is this doubt coming from?
👉 Am I confusing a feeling with a fact?
👉 Am I reasoning from a possibility rather than a real probability?
When you learn to recognize obsessional doubt for what it is - a product of imagination, not reality - it loses its grip.
I-CBT doesn’t just fight the fire. It cuts off the fuel.
