OCD progress is not linear. It is often actually bumpy along the way. In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore why things can get messy and how to see beyond the messy to recognize the OCD progress.Free OCD Webinar for parents:🌸 5 Things Every Parent Raising a Child with OCD Needs to Knowwww.Natashadaniels.com/ocdwebinar****This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) are not the same. Many parents seeking treatment for OCD are not aware of that and search just for a CBT therapist.ERP is a specific type of CBT that provides evidenced-based treatment for those with OCD.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explain the difference between CBT and ERP as well as how to find a therapist trained in ERP.IOCDF.org/find-helpwww.TreatmyOCD.com****This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

OCD wants us to take its threats seriously. It wants us to debate with it, argue, and come up with solutions to circumvent the issues it presents. Afraid of germs - let’s think of ways you can avoid it.Afraid you’ll turn into something you aren’t - let’s remind yourself that you are a good person.Afraid you forgot something - let’s develop ways you can remember.All of these solutions are created based on the validity of what OCD is saying. When we learn how to unhook from the stories OCD wants to sell us, we weaken OCD’s grip.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore how these issues can show up and how we can teach our kids and teens to not get caught in OCD’s trap.🌸 3-Days Only:4 Workshops for the Price of Two:🌸Sneaky Ways OCD Accommodations Get Through🌸How to Create a Therapeutic Home Environment for Your Child with OCD🌸Helping Anxious Kids Thrive in School🌸Sneaky Ways OCD Sabotages Success (and How to Avoid it)Click here to take advantage of this discount.

Anxiety and OCD don’t always appear in an obvious way. Sometimes our kids will have behaviors that we would never think would be anxiety or OCD. In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about some common behaviors that hide anxiety or OCD and what parents should do when they see them.For more in-depth support on difficult behaviors check out these resources:Free Webinar: Tips to Handle Difficult Behavior Caused by Anxiety or OCDOnline Course: Handling Difficult Behavior Caused by Anxiety or OCD****This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

As a cognitive behavioral therapist I talk a great deal about how to help our kids by reframing their anxious thoughts and taking steps to do brave things. But I want to expand your child’s toolbox with other useful ways for them to calm their mind and body. The more diversified our children’s coping mechanisms, the better they will do long term!In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I invited Kristi Fischer and Kelly Winkler to the show. They host the podcast Mindful Conversations with KAY (Kidding around Yoga). In their podcast they talk about using research based tools and strategies to help increase mindfulness, self awareness, connection, self-regulation and peace in your home or classroom. As yoga instructors, prior educators and mom’s themselves, they are the perfect people to have on the show to help us build these skills with our children!For more information on KAY visit the Kidding Around Yoga website here.

We only have a small part to play in our child’s anxiety or OCD success. It is their journey and we are only one piece of that puzzle. But that is a puzzle piece we can work on!Often our own erroneous beliefs, limitations or fears create unintentional barriers to our child’s long term success with anxiety or OCD.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore some of those beliefs and fears and how we can address them.❤️ Want more in-depth help?
