Natasha Daniels,  who is a therapist who specializes in childhood anxiety and OCD joins me on this episode.  Consider this OCD 101 as it will give you valuable information and understanding about what symptoms to watch for, what specific treatments to get and how to parent a child with OCD.   

Watch for patterns of behaviors and thought patterns.  Watch for a need to do things in a certain way, in a certain order or a need to be in control of certain things.   Look for a specifically OCD trained therapist who practices ERP therapy.  If your therapist doesn't do ERP and hasn't been specifically trained, find someone else who is.

As parents we are the ones who can make the most difference in the healing if we learn and grow and understand how to parent a child with OCD.  Natasha is a fantastic resource for parents, between her Instagram account, podcast, YouTube channel and her parenting courses, you have such great tools to learn how to really help our kids with anxiety and OCD.   The cost of her courses is accessible to all and her goal is to really empower parents.
