Helping Kids with OCD Know They are Not Alone

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

Having OCD can be a lonely experience. Kids can feel like there is no one else out there who gets their struggles. 

And really, who can blame them? 

The media (and even worse social media) often spend their time talking about OCD like it’s a meme or an adjective.

But feeling alone does more than impact the mood and self-esteem. It can stand in the way of progress and impact our child’s long-term success.

In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I talk about why it’s SO important to help kids with OCD not feel alone – and how we can go about doing that!

Here are some resources I discuss during the episode:

🌸 Books

What to Do When Your Brain Gets Stuck
