J. Scott Matthews, LPC
I earned my Master's of Science in Professional Counseling from Georgia State University in 1998, and I'm a member of the International OCD Foundation, as well as the Anxiety & Depression Association of America. I’ve worked at a number of sites, governmental and private, throughout my lengthy career, but private outpatient counseling and psychotherapy remain my first love.

Inference-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT)
Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (I-CBT) is a specialized form of cognitive therapy primarily developed to treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). Unlike traditional CBT, which often focuses on challenging the content of thoughts and reducing compulsions through exposure, I-CBT focuses on how a person arrives at obsessive doubts in the first place.
The Core Idea
I-CBT proposes that OCD begins with a false inference (a mistaken conclusion) rather than a realistic concern.
For example:
- A person touches a clean doorknob.
- There is no actual evidence of contamination.
- OCD creates a doubt: "What if there are dangerous germs on my hands?"
- The person starts treating this imagined possibility as if it were reality.
- Anxiety increases, leading to compulsions such as excessive handwashing.
I-CBT helps individuals recognize when they have left reality-based reasoning and entered what therapists call the "inferential confusion" process—giving more weight to imagined possibilities than to direct evidence.
