If you're suffering with treatment resistant OCD, multiple modalities will need to be combined for positive results.
rTMS is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique which has shown to have good results and is FDA approved for treatment resistant OCD especially. It's painless and quite simple. So, that's a good option.
We can combine that with medication and psychotherapy for best results.

Hi
I appreciate that you are out with your concern
Effective treatment for OCD often requires a combination of pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy.
Medications help alleviate symptoms, while psychotherapy, particularly cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), ERP and Hypnotherapy, provides strategies to manage obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Integrating both approaches maximizes the chances of long-term recovery and improved quality of life.
You can start therapy with an experienced psychologist

If it is OCD, you should go for cognitive behaviour therapy first rather than anything else. Try to take therapy sessions regularly along with medication. She will definitely see a change because if it is OCD then it does require therapy because there are you know irrational thoughts in flexible patterns that needs to be broken or change to help you to adapt more healthy behaviour. I can help you with that you can reach out to me. All the best.

When multiple medications at adequate doses have been tried for adequate duration of time and there has been no response, then the next logical step Is to try other approaches including rTMS.
