Singh, Satwant; Jones, Colin
- Abstract
The safety and quality of life of an individual, their family members and others can be compromised by compulsive hoarding syndrome. However services and treatment options remain limited despite increased awareness of its effects. The London Hoarding Treatment Group has developed a creative approach to treatment by using visual-method interventions to engage people with the condition. This article provides guidance on how mental health professionals can help people to cope with compulsive hoarding syndrome.
