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 is a really important topic, and it's about helping our kids with OCD know they're

not alone, and it's so important, it's not a fluffy topic, it's so important because

if a child feels alone with their struggles with OCD, there's a domino ripple effect that happens.

It impacts their ability to communicate with you about their OCD, it impacts whether they can

find support, are open to support, will utilize support, and it really overall impacts their long-term

success.

So I'm going to talk to you about why kids feel alone, how it happens, and why it's important

to help them, the domino effect, and then what to do about it so that we can start today saying,

let's just make sure our kids feel less alone in their struggles with OCD.

But before we get started, I want to thank NoCD for sponsoring this episode and helping kids
