Hey Reader- If your child has OCD, you’ve probably spent countless hours trying to make their intrusive thoughts go away.

In this episode, I’ll unpack the common misunderstandings parents have about OCD intrusive thoughts and explain why many well-intentioned responses can accidentally keep OCD going. We’ll talk about why recovery isn’t about eliminating intrusive thoughts, why logic and reassurance...

Hey Reader- The email usually starts with, “Oh no! I just saw this. Is it possible…” and inevitably it is someone begging me to keep the doors to the AT Parenting Community open after they’ve been closed. I don’t want that to be you.

Then the doors close and they have second thoughts about not having the amazing support...

That might feel overwhelming, but in truth it can be empowering. All you need is a little guidance on where to start, what to do, and how to do it. Make that...

Hey there, Why be an island when there is so much support waiting for you? There is power in having guidance on tap. I have spoken to parents in our member app when they were in crisis and couldn’t reach their therapist. I’ve been asked to look at therapist’s websites to make sure they would be a good fit to save parents time and money. I have educated parents on various themes of anxiety and OCD only for them to discover they had been missing a HUGE theme. I have connected parents to local...
