Teaching Kids with Anxiety or OCD to Advocate for Themselves

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

It is important for all kids to learn how to advocate for themselves. It is an especially important skill for kids with anxiety or OCD. Many of us feel like we have to go to bat for our kids with anxiety and OCD over and over again. But often we forget the important aspect of pulling back over time to teach our kids how to advocate for themselves.
