Parenting a child with OCD can feel incredibly isolating. Your child is on their own journey with anxiety or OCD, but that doesn’t mean you’re supposed to navigate it alone.

In this episode, I talk about one of the most overlooked pieces of helping kids with OCD: parent support.

I explore questions like:

• Who do you turn to when things feel overwhelming?
• Do you have access to other parents who get it?
• Do you have a safe place to vent without judgment?
• Are you surrounded by people who can validate your struggles and share what’s helped them?
• Does your child have access to age-appropriate support beyond just you?

I also share why having a community matters so much when you’re raising a child with anxiety or OCD — not just for emotional support, but for practical tools, shared wisdom, and grounding perspective when OCD is loud.

At the end of the episode, I talk about the AT Parenting Community, which is currently open for a limited time. Inside the community, parents get access to:

• A supportive space to connect with other parents raising kids with anxiety and OCD
• Live classes, on-demand courses and support group calls for parents, kids and teens
• Helpful resources and ongoing education
• A place to private message me and other parents questions
• A safe, understanding environment where you don’t have to explain or justify what you’re going through

If you’ve been trying to do this on your own, this episode is an invitation to pause and ask: Do I have enough support — and what would change if I did?
