Welcome to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get help and guidance through the

chaos of parenting a child with anxiety or OCD.

This show is for educational purposes and is not intended to replace the guidance of

a qualified professional.

Here's your host, child therapist Natasha Daniels.

Well, hello there and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast.

Today we want to talk to you about health issues with your kids, health anxiety, health

OCD.

We're going to go into it all and everything in between.

This can be your child is, you know, getting hooked on the fear that they're sick or they

are going to have a disease all the way to worrying about their breaths or their breathing

or their heartbeat to things like, am I going to choke?

So worrying about your health can really be a pretty big, broad topic and theme for

kids with anxiety or OCD.

And to help me discuss this matter, I brought back Dr. Don Hebner, who I love having

on the podcast because, first of all, she is churning out these incredible children's

books on these very specific themes and we are going to talk to her about health, anxiety

and OCD and also her new book, Facing Mighty Fears About Health, and discuss what's in

that and how that can help kids between the ages of six and 12, six and 10, but I actually

think it can help kids even older than that.

So I love talking to her because it's like, you know, you guys get kind of like you're

a fly on the wall listening to two therapists talk about these issues and how to help.
