Live Event: Pathways to Progress for Children and Teens with OCD

Join me and NOCD for a special live event as we discuss the groundbreaking findings from NOCD's recent study of kids and teens with OCD.

This study found that NOCD’s virtual exposure and response prevention (ERP) therapy helped kids and teens aged 5-17 reduce their OCD symptoms by nearly 40% after just 13 sessions—a major step forward for pediatric mental health.

We’ll explore what these results mean for the OCD community, the importance of early identification and treatment of OCD, and how parents can find effective, evidence-based care for their children.

Register here to reserve your spot!

📅 When: Tuesday, March 18, at 5:30pm ET / 4:30pm CT / 2:30pm PT

📍 Where: Live on NOCD’s YouTube channel

Take care,
Natasha

I started to implement this approach with my kids in a child friendly way. It made a huge impact on how I showed up for their anxiety and OCD struggles. It also helped me let go of what I cannot control. In...
