| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get help and guidance through |
| 0:08.1 | the chaos of parenting a child with anxiety or OCD. |
| 0:12.1 | This show is for educational purposes and is not intended to replace the guidance of |
| 0:16.5 | a qualified professional. |
