What Effective OCD Treatment Looks Like (and Doesn’t Look Like).
Getting OCD treatment from a general therapist who doesn’t specialize in OCD is like going to your primary care physician to get a heart transplant.

If you suffer with OCD or are raising a child with OCD, it unfortunately falls to you to educate yourself on what effective OCD treatment should look like – so you can spot the difference right away.

Learn How to Help Your Child Yourself:
If you don’t have access to a child OCD therapist, you can start learning these skills yourself. And even if you do have an OCD therapist, it is crucial parents learn how to handle their child’s OCD at home.
