When Professionals Get Your Child’s OCD Wrong

When Professionals Get Your Child’s OCD Wrong What happens when the professionals you trust to help your child’s OCD, actually make things worse? Too many parents of kids with OCD are told to “reassure them,” “avoid the triggers,” or “help them relax.” Even well-meaning therapists often miss the mark — treating OCD like general anxiety or skipping ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) altogether. In this episode, I’m breaking down why OCD is so often misunderstood in therapy, how to tell if...

There is nothing more powerful than having all the knowledge to spot a good anxiety or OCD therapist a mile away, because you are that skilled. Get empowered to help your child or teen directly There is nothing more empowering than having a group of hundreds of parents give you advice when you have a meeting with the school, therapist or doctor. There is nothing more rewarding than finding out exactly where to start and how to respond to your child’s anxiety or OCD struggles. Want to feel...

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. Some parents sit with a decision for a long time. Do they really need that kind of support? Is it going to be worth it? Some parents sit so long, they miss their opportunity. Then the doors close and they have second thoughts about not having the amazing support the...

Your child, if lucky, spends about 1 hour a week with a therapist. Your child, and their anxiety and OCD, spend 168 hours per week with YOU. You do the math. You have the biggest influence over your child’s anxiety or OCD. A therapist is meant to guide and support you and your child, but the rest is up to you, and them. 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 influence count....

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 therapists...

I have received many emails and messages with questions about the AT Parenting Community. I figured, if other parents are asking this, maybe you are wondering about it as well? That’s why I compiled the most common questions and answered them below. If you don’t see the answer to your question, just hit reply and ask us. 🟤 If my child doesn’t have a therapist or a diagnosis, can I still join? Of course! In fact many parents in the community don’t have one either. But they are taking the...

Final reminder that the special discount to join the AT Parenting Community is ending in just a few hours. If you happened to not see any of my other emails about this… Here’s a recap of the discount that is ending: Instead of paying $30 a month, how about $25 instead?
