Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Workshop
We are thrilled to offer a parent workshop via Zoom for parents with children who have OCD symptoms as they wait for individual treatment. Although this does not replace individual therapy and you will continue to remain on our Cornerstone waitlist, research has shown that parent training plays a critical role in the treatment of OCD. As we like to say, we don't come home with you, and so if we can teach and coach you to be the "therapist" the opportunities to continue to help your child's fight against OCD are endless.
Details
