  • Summary

  • Hi Parents!

    In this episode, we're unpacking the realities of OCD and the overlap it has with anxiety, especially how intrusive thoughts can impact your teen's daily life. While everyone experiences intrusive thoughts from time to time, for those with OCD, these thoughts can feel overwhelming and distressing, often leading to compulsive behaviors. I’ll be discussing how to recognize the signs of OCD, its connection to anxiety, and the importance of normalizing these experiences.

    Tune in to discover effective strategies to support your teen in managing their thoughts and emotions. We’ll explore how you can help them understand that thoughts are just thoughts — neurons firing in the brain — and that they don't define who they are. By fostering this awareness, you can empower your teen to navigate their experiences with confidence and resilience.

    Whether you’re trying to differentiate between typical thoughts and those indicative of OCD or seeking ways to provide support, this episode will equip you with valuable insights and tools.

    Big hugs,

    Monica Crnogorac
