Summary

The purpose of this research is to measure changes in brain activity with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) before and after cognitive-behavioral therapy for compulsive hoarding. Cognitive-behavioral therapy aims to help people change the thoughts and behaviors that maintain symptoms of hoarding. The investigators intend to enroll approximately 80 people with hoarding disorder and 40 people with no psychiatric disorder, between the ages of 20 and 60, for this study. The investigators believe that after treatment there will be changes in the brain activity of individuals with compulsive hoarding.
