    • Understanding Your Role: What You Can and Can’t Do When Your Child Has OCD

      Understanding Your Role: What You Can and Can’t Do When Your Child Has OCD
      Nov 18 2025

      As parents, we want to rescue our kids from anxiety and OCD—but the truth is, some things are not within our control. And when we spend our energy trying to fix what isn’t ours to fix, we burn out, lose connection with our child, and unintentionally strengthen OCD. In this episode, I break down the critical difference between what is your role and what isn’t, so you can stop spinning your wheels and start creating meaningful progress for your child.

      You’ll Learn What You Can’t Do (No Matter How Hard You Try):

      • You can’t force your child to stop compulsions that don’t involve you
      • You can’t create motivation or force insight
      • You can’t speed up their progress or prevent new OCD themes from emerging
      • You can’t make them share every intrusive thought

      Trying to control these things only leads to power struggles and frustration—for you and your child.


      Then We Shift to What You Can Do (and Where True Power Lies):

      • Educate yourself and recognize new OCD patterns early
      • Understand co-occurring struggles that impact progress
      • Identify how you may be unintentionally feeding OCD
      • Learn how to systematically pull back from accommodations
      • Set healthy boundaries so OCD doesn’t run your home
      • Incentivize your child to do the work instead of doing it for them
      • Determine where your child is in their journey—trust, skills, or treatment—and start there

      You do have influence. You do have a role. And when you lean into the things you can control, that’s when your child’s growth begins.

      👉 Want hands-on guidance through this process? Join the AT Parenting Community, where I support parents step-by-step in building a therapeutic home environment and empowering their kids to take their life back from OCD. Doors close on Thursday, Nov 20th, 2025.

    • The 7 Biggest Mistakes Parents Make When Trying to Help OCD (and What to Do Instead)

      The 7 Biggest Mistakes Parents Make When Trying to Help OCD (and What to Do Instead)
      Nov 11 2025

      Are you trying everything to help your child’s OCD… yet nothing seems to stick?

      You’re not alone—and it’s not because you’re doing anything wrong.

      In this episode, I’m breaking down the 7 most common mistakes parents make when trying to help OCD, and more importantly, what to do instead. These mistakes are incredibly common, even among well-meaning therapists, and understanding them is the first step to real progress.

      We’ll talk about:

      • Why logic and reassurance often make OCD stronger
      • How accommodations quietly feed OCD’s power
      • Why ERP isn’t just “facing fears”
      • And the role parents must play in their child’s OCD journey

      If your child has OCD, this episode will help you stop spinning your wheels and start using tools that actually work.
