Results: Results showed a significant alleviation in obsessive symptoms, scores of anxiety and depression, believability and distress of obsessions and need to response to them in post-test among three patients and the alleviation continued for 1-month follow-up.

Conclusion: Results of this study show that the acceptance and commitment-based therapy can be an effective treatment for patients with treatment-resistant OCD.
