When you’re trying to support a child with OCD, communication is everything. But sometimes, even with the best intentions, we accidentally shut it down.
In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I’ll walk you through four common OCD communication stoppers—like punishing, over-rationalizing, or jumping straight into coaching—and explain why they backfire.
Learn how to foster open, supportive conversations about your child’s OCD that actually help your child feel heard and empowered.

Raising a child with anxiety or OCD can feel incredibly isolating. Parents often find themselves without the support, education, or guidance they desperately need. In this episode, I’m diving into the three key areas where parents struggle most—and how my AT Parenting Community is designed to fill those gaps.
Here’s what we cover in this episode:
The crushing isolation that comes with parenting a child with anxiety or OCD—and how over a thousand parents from around the world are finding connection through our community.The need for trusted education, including access to over $500 worth of self-paced courses, a huge library of recorded classes, and weekly live lessons created specifically for our members.How to get real, evidence-based guidance, from messaging me directly in the app, to engaging with others, or getting support in our live parent and child support groups.You’ll also hear why therapists recommend our community as a powerful supplement to treatment, and why families who couldn’t access care find it to be a lifeline.
Whether you’re here for one element—like our live support group calls—or the full experience, this community was built for you.
Doors are closing Thursday, May 15th at 10pm PT.

OCD thrives on urgency. The faster your child reacts to an intrusive thought, the more powerful OCD becomes. But what if your child learned to pause—even for a few seconds—before doing an OCD compulsion?
In this episode, I’ll walk you through how to introduce the concept of “delay” as a gentle, approachable first step in helping your child take back control. You’ll learn how to teach it, what to expect, and why it works.

In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Sara Conley, a licensed clinical psychologist and clinical manager at NOCD, to discuss a groundbreaking new study on virtual Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy for children and teens with OCD.
We explore the study’s powerful findings—including a 37.3% median reduction in OCD symptoms in just 13 sessions—and how virtual ERP therapy is changing the landscape of OCD treatment for families.
Dr. Conley shares how NOCD’s model brings accessible, evidence-based therapy directly into families’ homes, and why parent involvement is a key piece of successful treatment.
We also talk about:
What makes virtual ERP different from in-person therapy How the NOCD app supports families between sessionsThe importance of integrating therapy into real life without overwhelming familiesHow over 90% of American families with commercial health insurance can access NOCD’s treatmentWhat this study means for the future of OCD treatment and the broader mental health crisis in youthWhether your child is newly diagnosed or you’re already navigating OCD treatment, this episode offers encouragement, insights, and practical hope.

If your child refuses to shower, melts down over clothing, or avoids homework, you might assume they’re being defiant. But what if it’s actually OCD driving their behavior?

You’ll learn:

🟤 Key signs that reveal it’s OCD, not oppositional behavior.
🟤 Why traditional discipline backfires with OCD.
🟤 Practical strategies to respond effectively with compassion and boundaries.
If you’ve ever felt frustrated or confused by your child’s behavior, this episode will help you recognize the hidden OCD compulsions behind it—so you can support your child with OCD in the right way.

If your child has OCD, you’ve likely witnessed an OCD-driven meltdown—intense distress triggered by an intrusive thought, fear, or the inability to complete a compulsion. These meltdowns can be overwhelming for both you and your child. And while it’s natural to want to soothe their anxiety in the moment, some responses can unintentionally reinforce OCD.
In this AT Parenting Survival Podcast episode, we’ll cover:
-What’s happening in your child’s brain during a meltdown
-What not to do (even if it feels helpful)
-Effective strategies to de-escalate the meltdown and support your child’s resilience
-Tips for preventing future meltdowns

Anxiety and OCD can abruptly put the brakes on our children’s education.This is one of the most disruptive and concerning aspects of our children’s OCD or anxiety. It is a slippery slope that can gain momentum and get out of control rather quickly.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I explore how to identify the core fear around school refusal, how to decipher if it is a school issue versus an anxiety or OCD issue, and how to navigate the issue without making school avoidance worse.

How do we help our children with OCD have a better quality of life? Our child’s OCD is more than just Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. It is more than just their intrusive thoughts and their compulsions.
How do we help them with self-esteem? The feeling of guilt and shame? The struggles of navigating school and family relationships?
In Dr. Jonathan Abramowitz’s new book, Living Well with OCD, he tackles the bigger question - how can people live a fulfilling life with OCD?
Jonathan Abramowitz is a psychologist with a private practice in North Carolina. He is also the Professor and Associated Chair of Psychology at the University of North Carolina (UNC).
In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I invited Dr. Abramowitz to share his insights on how we can help our kids live a fulfilling life, despite OCD.

There is nothing more disruptive and upsetting than OCD latching on to a loved one. Contamination isn’t just about germs - it can be about people, people our kids love. Families get thrown into chaos when OCD decides a parent or sibling is the source of contamination.
Out of all themes, this one has the power to upend the entire family.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore how OCD determines family members are contaminated and what parents can do to counteract the destructive impact it has in the home.

As you become more educated about anxiety and OCD, you most likely will start seeing it all around you. It can be hard to stomach seeing a child struggling with anxiety or OCD, especially if their parents aren’t aware of what they are truly dealing with.
So what do you do in those situations? I actually get asked that question more often than you might think!
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’ll explore the delicate balance of seeing anxiety or OCD in a child and how, and if, to educate the parent on what might be going on.

I quickly fell in love with Mel Robbins’ book The Let Them Theory. It is such a simple, and yet powerful approach to living your life. Throughout the book I thought about how the Let Them Theory could be adapted to parents, and in particular, those of us raising kids with anxiety or OCD.
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 this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to implement elements of the Let Them Theory with our kids with anxiety and OCD.

OCD can convince our kids that they have control over the uncontrollable. That is at the heart of magical thinking OCD compulsions. Magical thinking is when OCD convinces a person that if they do or don’t do something - they can prevent something from happening.
That something could be literally anything related to their theme. They might be preventing themselves from throwing up. They might be saving your life. They might be preventing a health issue. It is different for each person, but the compulsion is the same - do this (or don’t do this) or ELSE.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’m exploring how magical thinking shows up in OCD and how you can help your kids overcome it.

Not every OCD theme is about a fear, sometimes it is about a feeling. That is the case with Tourettic OCD. Tourettic OCD is not triggered by an intrusive thought, but rather a somatic urge. Compulsions can include sudden, repetitive movements or vocalizations.
It can be tricky to figure out what is a tic and what is tourettic OCD. That is why I invited Dr. John Piacentini to the show. Dr. John Piacentini is a Professor of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at the UCLA School of Medicine and Director of the Child OCD, Anxiety, and Tic Disorders Program at the UCLA Semel Institute and the UCLA Center for Child Anxiety, Resilience, Education and Support (UCLA CARES)
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast Dr. Piacentini breaks down the difference between Tourette’s, tics and OCD - and helps clarify what Tourettic OCD is and how it is treated.

Effective communication is one of the most essential aspects of parenting a child with OCD or anxiety. When communication breaks down, our ability to support them directly becomes limited.
The way we communicate, the words we choose, and our ability to read our child’s cues while respecting their pace all play a crucial role in how effective that communication will be.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I’ll explore some important strategies for fostering effective communication and share practical tips to help you overcome any barriers that may be hindering your connection with your child.

We don’t just leave our childhood in the past. It comes with us, altering our lens of how we view life. This includes how we view and interact with our child’s anxiety or OCD.
When we learn to identify the “smudges” our childhood is adding to our lens, we are better able to separate out our issues from our child’s issues, becoming more present and intentional in the moment.
In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I will help you explore the 5 main categories where our childhood impacts how we parent our kids with anxiety or OCD, as well as what to do about it!

Trying to help a child with OCD or anxiety is not an easy task. One reason for that is because we are not steering the ship. This is not our battle. This is not our struggle. Although trust me, I know we have our own struggles on this journey raising a child with OCD or anxiety.
But, we don’t get to override our child’s autonomy to smooth things out. I wish we could.
The single hardest part about raising children with OCD or anxiety is we have to follow their pace. We have to follow their level of engagement. If we overstep, over push or over cheerlead, we risk shutting them down.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to know when to step back and how to support your child while their foot is firmly on the brake.

We all want our kids with anxiety or OCD to believe in themselves. We want them to try hard things. We want them to push through their fears. But we only have so much control on how motivated they are to do those things to help themselves.
We do, however, have control over how we show up to our child’s battle with anxiety or OCD.
When we over accommodate, over enable and cocoon our kids from all discomfort and failure, we rob them of the opportunity to develop resilience.
It is a balancing act and it looks different for each child.
In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to find the sweet spot of empowering our kids to face their anxiety or OCD, while not pushing them over the edge.

How we reframe anxious thoughts vs OCD thoughts are vastly different. Understanding the nuances of how we talk to these two disorders differently is crucial for any parent trying to help their child.
In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore the differences between anxiety and OCD and how we would coach our kids through anxious thoughts versus OCD thoughts.
