Abstract
A highly structured cognitive-behavioral approach was employed for the treatment of obsession with aggressive theme. The cognitive techniques included identifying and correcting the cognitive distortions. “Thought is equal to action” was the chief distortion identified. The therapy session lasted over an hour. At the end of the session the client was free of the obsession. The improvement was sustained at two and five weeks after the single session.Keywords
