  • Functional and Cognitive Rehabilitation of Hoarding Disorder

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Hoarding Disorder (HD) is serious and disabling in Veterans. Present in up to 7% of Veterans and even higher symptom rates in older Veterans; HD contributes to functional impairment and poor quality of life. Cognitive Rehabilitation and Exposure/Sorting Therapy (CREST) has shown promising functional improvement and symptom reduction. To reduce burdens and barriers to implementation of CREST, the proposed project will individualize CREST based on cognitive testing and participant preferences, provide all care in the participant's home through telemedicine and home visits, and shorten the timeframe of treatment. A randomized controlled trial comparing 24 sessions of Personalized-CREST to case management for 130 adult Veterans with HD is proposed. Multifaceted functional and recovery outcomes including quality of life, HD severity, and sustained recovery outcomes will be examined throughout treatment and follow-up. By advancing the knowledge of the rehabilitative care of HD, we can interrupt the trajectory of this chronic and debilitating condition.

  • Cognitive Rehabilitation and Exposure Therapy for Geriatric Hoarding

    Sorry, accepting new patients by invitation only

    Hoarding disorder (HD) is a chronic, progressive, and debilitating psychiatric condition that leads to devastating personal and public consequences, particularly for older adults. This confirmatory efficacy trial will advance our knowledge of the mechanisms of action in the treatment of HD as well as reduce symptom severity, disability, and community consequences.

  • Neuromodulation for Comorbid Hoarding Disorder and Depression

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The primary goal of this study is to evaluate whether intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) is effective for treating depression in people who have depression and chronic hoarding disorder (HD). The study will also evaluate whether this treatment can improve HD symptoms, cognitive performance, and brain region connectivity. The study team will investigate how the treatment works for depression, as well as other factors that can enhance or hinder treatment, such as pre-treatment level of depression, cognitive performance, or brain region connectivity.
