Summary

When you bring your child to a cardiologist, you expect they know all the evidence based treatment interventions to help your child. When you bring them to an endocrinologist you assume they are an expert in all things endocrinology.

But sadly you cannot assume the same when seeing a mental health therapist. The truth is not all therapists are properly trained and informed on how to assess, diagnose and treat OCD.

That means we, as parents, have to have enough knowledge to spot a helpful versus a harmful therapist. We have to know what evidenced based approaches work and why. We have to ask the right questions to know that we are in the right place.

🌸 Get in-depth support to help your child with OCD in my online courses at AT Parenting Survival School.

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. This show is for educational purposes and is not intended to
0:15.3	replace the guidance of a qualified professional. Here's your host, child therapist,
0:20.6	Natasha Daniels.
0:23.0	Well, hello there and welcome to another episode
0:25.6	of the AT parenting survival podcast.
0:28.9	I hope everything's going well with you.
0:30.8	I want to talk about, I think probably one of the most important things that I try to convey
0:36.5	to parents which is why OCD can get worse with the wrong therapist because if you don't know that you're looking for a
0:46.9	specific therapy or you're looking for a specific type of therapist you're going to
0:51.8	shop around and find the one that's the most convenient, the one
0:56.7	that takes your insurance that lives down the street that will be easily accessible.
1:02.8	And I want to talk about why the wrong therapist can actually
1:05.1	create a bigger issue with OCD, and how to look for those red flags
1:10.6	and how to find a therapist that is qualified to treat your child's OCD.
1:15.0	But before we get started, I want to let you know, ironically, that this podcast is sponsored by No C.
1:21.0	No C.D.
1:22.0	No C. D offers affordable, effective convenient therapy and they are available in the
1:26.3	U.S. and outside of the U.S. and you can schedule your free 15 minute consultation to see
1:31.9	if no C.D. is a right fit for you and your child.
1:34.7	Just go to treat my OCD.com.
1:37.3	Treat my OCD.com. I'll leave a link in the show notes.
