It can be hard to help kids navigate anxiety and OCD. Sometimes adding some creative ways to help validate, normalize and build skills to handle anxiety or OCD can be gold! One of my favorite ways to do that is through storytelling.Storytelling is a powerful tool. It can help kids understand how anxiety and OCD work. It can help talk about anxiety or OCD without discussing it directly. It can be a creative outlet to process emotions around anxiety and OCD. It can even be used to problem solve and teach tools on how to crush anxiety and OCD.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’ll discuss the many helpful uses to add the creative approach of storytelling to help kids with anxiety or OCD.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’ll discuss the many helpful uses to add the creative approach of storytelling to help kids with anxiety or OCD.🌸 Join my FREE parent series going on right now!

Raising a child with Emetophobia, the fear of throw up, can be an isolating experience. It brings with it all sorts of fears. What if they can’t overcome their struggles? What if they can’t go to school? What if they stop eating entirely?It is important that parents don’t feel alone on this journey. That is why I was so thrilled when Lauren, a parent in my AT Parenting Community, reached out and asked to be on my podcast. She was so excited about seeing her daughter’s progress that she wanted to share her story with others.In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I sat down with Lauren as we both discussed our experiences as moms to kids with Emetophobia. We explore what worked, what didn’t and how we try to manage our own anxiety around it all.Resources:AT Parenting CommunityATparentingsurvivalschool.comDr. David Russ and Anna Christie: emetophobia.netEmetophobia: Understanding and Treating Fear of Vomit in Children and Adults  by Dr. David RussEmetophobia!

Your child is paralyzed with fear. They are nauseous. They are faint. They are immobilized. It is hard to watch as a parent. For many of us it can trigger our own panicky response. When our kids are spiraling out of control it can be so easy for us to spiral with them. It often takes a concerted effort to remain calm and be the anchor our child so desperately needs.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’ll explore some techniques to reduce your own anxiety while your child is panicking.🌸 Check out my online school of courses at www.atparentingsurvivalschool.com***This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy has been a helpful therapy modality for many people with anxiety and OCD. Often parents wonder how this therapy can be adapted to help children.I invited Dr. Tamar Black to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast to explain what Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is and how it can help our kids with anxiety and OCD.Check out Dr. Black’s books, The ACT Workbook for Kids and ACT for Treating Children: The Essential Guide for Acceptance and Commitment Therapy for Children******This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

One of the hardest parts about social anxiety is the feeling you are the only one with these struggles. It actually feeds into the disorder quite well. It is a story that many of us with social anxiety tell ourselves.No one struggles like you do.No one thinks the way you do.No one would understand.When I had Lori and her colleagues, Katie and Mallory, from The Childhood Collective on my podcast, I was surprised when Lori said she had social anxiety. I wanted to hear more and asked her if she’d be willing to come on the show to discuss it. Luckily she agreed!In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I sat down with Lori to hear about her social anxiety struggles, how it impacted her career and how treatment turned everything around.If you want to learn more about social anxiety follow me on Instagram @socialanxietyreality. To tap into the work of Lori, Katie and Mallory go to The Childhood Collective.🌸 Want more in-depth support with social anxiety?

Self-esteem and self-confidence can play a big role in our child’s journey with anxiety and OCD. When our anxious kids struggle they can feel overwhelmed with emotions of shame and isolation. They might beat themselves up for being different or for having difficulties. Self-esteem can also play an integral role in how our kids approach anxiety or OCD. Do they have an I can’t attitude or do they feel confident that they can use skills to overcome anxiety and OCD?Self-esteem work is always a crucial supplement to anxiety and OCD treatment. That is why I invited Jesse LeBeau, one of today’s most highly sought-after youth motivational speakers, to join us on the AT Parenting Survival Podcast. In this episode we’ll explore what tools we can offer our kids to help boost self-esteem and confidence.🎉 My new book, Crushing OCD Workbook for Kids was just released.

As parents we are often in the line of fire when it comes to our child’s overwhelm. When dealing with anxiety or OCD we can feel like we are our child’s punching bag. The truth is, physiologically our kids are often looking for a push-pull conversation. It is easier to see you as enemy #1 rather than facing anxiety and OCD head on.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about how to “put the rope down” and remove yourself from this push-pull pattern.🎉 My new book, Crushing OCD Workbook for Kids was just released.

We all lose it at one time or another. Parents are human. You are human. We inevitably will lose our cool and say or do things that we regret. But those parenting moments hold untapped clues to what is overwhelming us. Those moments hold wisdom, if we are able to move past the shame to see the insight underneath.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast we’ll explore how to handle those moments and what they might be revealing if we look deep.🎉 My new book, Crushing OCD Workbook for Kids was just released.

As parents we are often desperate to provide our children with tools to help their OCD. We might scour the internet trying to find an OCD specialist; not an easy feat. Or if we are lucky enough to have found an OCD specialist, we might want to know what we can do at home to fill in the gaps.I often get asked, what does that look like? How can I help my child build their OCD skills at home to make sure we are getting ahead of this beast?When kids learn and practice new skills on a daily basis they are more likely to have long-term success. But how do you do that?That is why I poured all my clinical knowledge I’ve gained from being an OCD child therapist for over two decades into an easily accessible OCD workbook kids can do at home.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I give you a sneak peak into all the skills I will teach your child and how you can use this workbook to propel your child’s long-term success crushing OCD.🎉 Announcement:My new book, Crushing OCD Workbook for Kids will be released tomorrow, Feb 21, 2024.

There is a strong relationship between social anxiety and bullying. Research has shown that a clinically significant amount of people with social anxiety have experienced bullying. Often children have a genetic predisposition to anxiety, but environmental stressors, like bullying, blossom that genetic seed.In this week’s episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about the relationship between social anxiety and bullying, how it impacts our kids and what we can do about it.Want more in-depth support around social anxiety?

There are many creative ways to help anxious kids. One way is through storytelling. Children can immerse themselves into stories and learn along the way. Stories can help normalize the experience of having anxiety and develop problem-solving skills in a more non-directive way.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk to Dr. Amy Neeren about how to use storytelling with anxious kids and about her chapter book series, Nellie in Knots.Click here to check out her book series Nellie in Knots!🎉 Announcement:My new book, Crushing OCD Workbook for Kids is about to be released!

It can feel like there is nothing you can do if your child refuses to work on anxiety or OCD. But in reality, that is far from true. We are one piece of the puzzle when it comes to our child’s anxiety or OCD, but it is still an important piece.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival podcast I talk about our role and what areas we can work on regardless of our child’s buy in or collaboration.🌸 Join us in the AT Parenting Community!

Raising a child with anxiety or OCD can be a very lonely experience. It can make us feel removed from our friends and family. It can even put a wedge between partners. The more isolated you feel on this journey, the harder it is to help your child. Why? Because your level of support is directly tied to your child’s long term progress.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast we talk about the struggles of feeling alone and isolated and some actionable steps to get that additional support.🌸 Join my FREE self-care series going on this week!

Dealing with our child’s anxiety or OCD is taxing enough, but sometimes there is another layer of stress. Often our child’s struggles can trigger something deep within us. A childhood wound, a flashback, a remnant of something that has remained dormant within us.When these old wounds are triggered we might have an exaggerated response to our child’s struggles or behaviors. Our past and present might get blurred and anger or fear can bubble up to the surface.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore how to spot our childhood wounds and how to separate our past from our present.🌸 Join my FREE self-care series starting this week!

Raising a child with Anxiety and OCD is hard enough, but when you and your partner are not on the same page, it can be even harder.It is common for one partner in the relationship to view their child’s anxiety or OCD differently. Couples can argue over a ton of things including how to handle their child’s struggles and if and when they should get professional help.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I’ll explore these common struggles and talk about concrete ways to bridge the gap so you are more of a united front.🌸 Join my FREE self-care series starting soon!

It is easy to lose yourself while trying to parent a child with anxiety or OCD. In fact, it can be hard not to. We might have ongoing thoughts about how to help our child. We might be consumed with worry about our child’s future. We might have dropped activities, friends and hobbies we once found joy in. Our relationships might have taken a permanent backseat. Our health and mental well being might have fallen completely off our to-do list.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I explore some common ways that you might have lost yourself and how to find your way back.🌸 Join my FREE self-care series starting soon!

When our child has anxiety or OCD, we are often providing some accommodations that inadvertently grow the problem. As we learn about anxiety and OCD, we also learn about the importance of pulling back those accommodations. This is not a black and white process. It takes time, it takes judgment and it takes discernment in the moment.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about accommodations, how they grow anxiety and OCD and how to systematically pull back accommodations over time, while having discernment for what your child can handle.Want more in-depth support?

OCD loves to hang out with other issues. There are many comorbid conditions that go with OCD. Misophonia and Misokinesia are two of them. Does your child feel rage over certain sounds, including mouth and nose sounds? Does your child get overwhelmed by certain motions, like a foot tapping or knee bouncing? Those are common struggles people with Misophonia and Misokinesia experience.In this week’s AT Parenting Survival Podcast I talk about the interconnected relationship between Misophonia, Misokinesia and OCD. Click here to listen:***This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

I can’t agree with you more. I was debating about my teen’s current therapist. She is very nice. But we don’t feel she is treating our daughter’s OCD. But I have my answers now. Thanks to you. But finding a therapist is the most challenging task. We don’t have much success. Do you have any suggestions. My daughter is 16. Do you have any training classes for the parents.

This is a wonderful article. I can see that you have done a lot of research and your subject knowledge is good and impressive. This is Nitin, I also like to write for an education blog https://www.cleariitmedical.com/ - This is an online blog for students who want to prepare for India's most difficult entrance exams - IIT JEE and NEET This is a free blog and provide free study material, quiz and notes to those who can't afford to pay hefty fees of coaching institutes. I write free of cost for the good cause. I know you must be busy with your work but if you could take out some time from your busy schedule and have a look at it. I saw a good collection of articles. If you only write a few words about this blog then it can help a lot of students out there. Thanks!"

We really loved this episode. My 8 year old has emetephobia and she loved hearing tips and ideas from someone her own age. It was nice to know someone else the same age had all the same thoughts and feelings.

My kiddo goes to a school designed to support kids with autism and other major mental health and behavioral challenges. They have created a room for them where they can go to be mask free for a few minutes when they need to decompress. They are also building in mask breaks throughout the day with outside activities with extra social distancing. This could be an easy IEP accommodation for kids in a regular school too.

I have found myself really obsessed with your podcasts i am 14 in and am tempted to restart to start taking notes. I have one question so far, could there be a correlation between autism and anxiety? To me, i feel like they may go hand in hand because of all of the other related issues. Would love to discuss this topic.

hello, I am also dealing with my son's anxiety attack. My some is 10 yrs old, and I am running out of ideas on how to help him with whatever he is going through. Can anyone be of help before I can take him to the child therapist? My husband and I are willing to try anything that could help us work with this problem.

I am so glad I found your podcast. I think my 6 year Olds core fear of his anxiety is seperation. He really gets upset, overloaded when it comes to school, his class is very load and unstructured. He also worries and is anxious about me dying and leaving him. please give me some tips on how to help and wjere to start. He conunicates very little to me, I've used your, "what's the worst thing" Concept and he has a hard time explaining and changes his answeres constantly. so I don't know what to do to ease and help his anxiety. The school really won't work with us, so we are home schooling but I need ideas still on how to work on his anxieties, thank you
