If you’re exhausted helping your child with OCD, this might be why. I’m an OCD therapist and a parent to kids with these struggles. And often we dive head first in trying to do this journey for our kids, not with our kids. We learn all the stuff. We read all the books. We get all the professionals. And those things are good, really good, but they are only one small part of the equation. You can’t force your child to: Use the skills Watch the videos Go to therapy But you can control how you show

As a child OCD therapist, I thought I understood how to help until… I had my own kids navigating anxiety and OCD. That’s when everything shifted. Here’s what I learned the hard way: 💡 1. You can’t drag a child toward progress. They have to move at their pace. Even when it feels painfully slow. (Walking a dog is the perfect metaphor for this.) 💡 2. Not all “OCD specialists” actually specialize. Even if someone says they do ERP, you need to know enough to spot when they don’t. I learned this fir

Things kids with OCD do that parents might not notice Not all OCD is loud. A lot of it shows up quietly, woven into daily routines in ways that look harmless or “just a habit.” Things like: • Using clothing to avoid touching surfaces • Needing objects to stay in the exact same spot • Checking the trash “just in case” • Opening and closing lids until they feel right • Balancing movements on both sides of the body • Going through toilet paper and soap much faster than expected These behaviors ofte

This is what OCD parenting looks like when you’re not doing it alone. -Getting real evidenced-based guidance instead of guessing. -Feeling understood instead of judged. -Watching your child connect with other kids who finally “get it.” -Learning what to ask, what to say, and how to respond. Support doesn’t erase the hard moments… but it changes everything about how you move through them. In my AT Parenting Community you’ll get: 🧡Weekly Zoom classes on supporting our kids 🧡Monthly Zoom support

When OCD tells your child they have “magical powers,” it feels terrifyingly real to them. OCD convinces kids that if they don’t follow its rules, something horrible will happen. Touch this three times. Fix that. Say it again. Change your shoes. Don’t say those words. And kids do it, not because it makes sense, but because they’re scared of what might happen if they don’t. But here’s the thing… If your child can “cause” bad things by not doing a compulsion, why can’t they cause good things? OCD s

This is why it takes kids with OCD so long to get ready Mornings with a child who has OCD can feel impossible. You’re rushing, they’re stuck, and it looks like they’re “taking forever,” but what’s really happening is a constant stream of doubt, fear, and mental compulsions you can’t see. It’s not defiance. It’s not laziness. It’s OCD turning every small step into a roadblock. Brushing teeth that doesn’t “feel right.” Rewashing hands after touching something “contaminated.” Changing clothes becau
