Why OCD Can Get Worse with the Wrong Therapist 

This episode is for educational purposes only and is not intended to replace the guidance of a qualified professional.

When you bring your child to a cardiologist, you expect they know all the evidence based treatment interventions to help your child. When you bring them to an endocrinologist you assume they are an expert in all things endocrinology.

The truth is not all therapists are properly trained and informed on how to assess, diagnose and treat OCD.

But sadly you cannot assume the same when seeing a mental health therapist. The truth is not all therapists are properly trained and informed on how to assess, diagnose, and treat OCD.

That means we, as parents, have to have enough knowledge to spot a helpful vs a harmful therapist. We have to know what evidenced-based approaches work and why. We have to ask the right questions to know that we are in the right place.
