Summary

Your child needs help, but therapy isn’t cutting it. Maybe it’s because she refuses to go or perhaps it’s because her issues are just too intense for outpatient therapy.What’s a parent supposed to do when the help isn’t helping? Outpatient therapy is where the road starts, not where it ends. Many parents don’t realize that. In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I invited Sami, a member of my AT Parenting Community to discuss her journey trying to help her daughter with OCD. She discussed the process of getting her into a PHP (Partial Hospitalization Program) and her experience once she was in.Sami is also a Life Coach for teen girls. She offers programs to support teens, including a few that help anxious teens.

0:00.0	Welcome to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get help and guidance through the
0:08.2	Chaos of Parenting a Child with Anxiety or OCD.
0:12.1	This show is for educational purposes and is not
0:14.8	intended to replace the guidance of a qualified professional. Here's your
0:18.9	host child therapist Natasha Daniels.
0:23.0	Well, hello there and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival
0:28.4	Podcast.
0:29.4	Today we are continuing with our series where once a month I highlight a member in the AT parenting
0:35.4	community and it's a member spotlight where we talk about their struggles and their journey.
0:41.0	And I have found that every time I talk to a parent, they are talking about a specific
0:46.0	topic that is very relevant to what a lot of us are going through.
0:51.4	And there's different themes.
0:52.4	We've covered a whole bunch of themes in this segment. And today is just the same. We're going to cover a new topic, a new theme that is very relevant to a lot of us. And that is, when do you seek a higher level of care?
1:05.5	And what I mean by that is there's not just therapy.
1:09.1	And a lot of parents don't understand this.
1:10.8	The mental health system is very confusing. I should just do a
1:13.5	podcast on decoding and demystifying the mental health system, all the things
1:18.4	that are confusing. Maybe that'd be a really good podcast. I'll have to put that
1:21.7	on my to-do list.
1:22.8	But when you take your child to a therapist,
1:26.0	that's the first step, right?
